“Annual automobile production capacity in India will be ‘doubled’ to 100,000 units by the end of 2007”

Slash in port charges = Tariff cuts? Maybe!

No April fool gimmick this time.

From April 1, the revised port charges will be in the range of Rs.10,500 to Rs.39,000 instead of the current Rs.14,000 to Rs.55,000.

Weary of dreaming? Now wear it!

If wishes were horses, then beggars would ride – a cliché pertinent to the automotive industry today. Consider this – what if someone asks you what your ‘dream car’ is; yes it’s the one you’re most passionate about that we’re talking of here! So, what would your answer be? The Ferrari Lambhorgini? DaimlerChrysler’s Maybach? BMW’s 7 Series? Or Ford’s Jaguar XJ? Or some four-wheeler that makes an easy hole in your pocket and, at the same time, symbolises how the owner is an individual who has just ‘arrived’ professionally?
