Tata Motors: India’s largest commercial vehicle manufacturer, has announced an impending price hike of its commercial vehicle range. An increase in price in the range of 2.5%, will be implemented from January 1, 2022, and will be put into effect across segments – M&HCV, I&LCV, SCV and Bus, basis individual model and variant of the vehicle. The increase in the prices of commodities such as steel, aluminium and other precious metals, in addition to higher costs of other raw materials, has incited this price hike in commercial vehicles. While the company is absorbing a significant portion of the increased costs at various levels of manufacturing, the steep rise in overall input costs makes it imperative to pass on some residual proportion via a minimal price hike.

The cost of acquisition is Rs. 576 crores. The acquisition will add Rs 1,300-1.5000 crore per annum to the topline of Indo Count. With the addition of almost 50% new capacity, Indo Count will become the largest Home Textile Bedding company, globally, with an annual capacity of approximately 153 million meters. Besides, the Board of Directors of GHCL has approved the modification of the ongoing Scheme of Demerger of the entire textile business.
