Finally TATA's have shown green signal for their new world's biggest bus plant. The bus manufacturing facility of Tata Marcopolo Motors Ltd. at Dharwad in Karnataka has begun commercial production from Feb-2009.
The Dharwad plant will cater to India’s growing demand for world class fully-built buses for intra-city and inter-city transportation with international standard comfort, quality and safety. It will produce a comprehensive range of buses to be marketed under the ‘Starbus’ and ‘Globus’ brands, including 16 to 54-seater standard buses, 18 and 45-seater luxury buses, luxury coaches and low-floor city buses.Spread over about 123 acres, the plant will have a capacity to produce 30,000 units a year, to be achieved in phases. In 2009-10, the first full year of operation, production can be up to 15,000 units. The joint venture has already invested about Rs. 200 crores. The plant, at full capacity, will generate over 6,500 direct jobs. It will be supported by a vendor park. Karnataka people are really thankful for TATA's drive and provide job opportunities.
In May 2006, Tata Motors and Marcopolo of Brazil announced a joint venture company in India to manufacture and assemble fully-built buses and coaches. The joint venture, in which Tata Motors will hold 51 per cent of the equity and Marcopolo will hold 49 per cent, initially set up a manufacturing facility in Lucknow from where the DTC low-floor city bus order was executed.
The joint venture is good combination with Tata Motors providing technology and expertise in chassis and aggregates, and Marcopolo providing the expertise and know-how in processes and systems for bodybuilding and bus body design. The buses built so far conform to international standards in quality and safety, and the plan is to market the products not only in India but also in all Tata Motors focused markets globally.
As we all know the Tata Marcopolo is proved for its cost effectiveness in city transport. With its special features it has already caught attention of many people. The success of Tata Marcopolo bus in Mumbai BRTS and Delhi has made Tata to bag more orders. I heard even BMTC- Bangalore has also recived positive responce for Tata- Marcopolo from people. I got some information that BMTC officials has received some request letters from public to add some more Tata-Marcopolo buses.
By this details its comfirm that Dharwad plant will run succesfully and make those Tata horses to run faster and safer.
Thanking again to Tata- Marcopolo for this great drive of providing luxury and comfort transport solution and to provide good Job opportunities.
