Minister of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, Anant Geete, assured automakers that the Government was working on a draft policy aimed at ironing out issues faced by the sector. He mentioned that opinions of all industry participants will be considered before drafting the policy.

The comment by Geete was in response to Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) President Abhay Firodia’s concern that there was a lack of uniformity in taxation with respect to the automobile sector. Firodia also raised the concern that Indian automakers are being given only 4 years to shift to BS-VI. Firodia also asked the Government not to write off diesel engines post BS VI implementation.
