Auto cos set to invest on expansion in Tamil Nadu Carried by BUSINESS STANDARD online Press Trust of India | New Delhi April 10, 2015 Last Updated at 17:22 IST
The automobile sector is set to receive a further push in Tamil Nadu with companies such as Yamaha, Ford and Mahindra & Mahindra set to pump in investments for expansion in the state. Besides, it is expected to attract heavy investments in electronic manufacturing as it has declared Kanchipuram and Vellore as electronic clusters. Tamil Nadu contributes about 25 per cent of the country's automobile output. The state has emerged as a preferred destination for vehicle manufacturers because of its proximity with ports and better infrastructure, Tamil Nadu Additional Chief Secretary C V Shankar told reporters today. He is here for the road show, which will also be held in cities including Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Ahmedabad for its Global Investors Meet 2015 to be held on May 23 and 24 at the Chennai Trade Centre. The state is targeting to attract Rs 1 lakh crore worth of investments from the meet. "Yamaha is going to start 1.8 million plant which is ready for inauguration and latest entrant is Mahindra & Mahindra. These are the investments which have flown in and now they are consolidating in the state," he said. Shankar further added that automakers have cumulatively invested around Rs 50,000 crore in the state. "The investment would continue to grow because of the port and eco-system that has developed in the state. Each big company brings lot of vendors which has spare capacities and so more and more companies would come there," Shankar added. When asked whether it has got any proposals from US auto maker Ford for expanding its capacity in the state, he said : "That is under discussion as they want to do something more on R&D. The discussion are going on... They would do some improvements in the existing plants". The state was also in touch with French auto maker Peugeot for their possible manufacturing unit here. Ford, in 1995, had invested in Tamil Nadu first and was followed by South Korean manufacturer Hyundai, Renault Nissan, Daimler, BMW. Apart from auto, the state is getting investments from electronic, renewable energy, textile, engineering goods. "We want to go for electronic manufacturing in a big way. We have already declared two places as Kanchipuram and Vellore clusters. This is the key area where we are expecting lots of action," he said.
- 78 - Apart from that, Hyderabad-based Nagarjuna Group which is putting in Rs 15,000 crore refinery in the state, will start the second phase of the plant with an investment of Rs 10,000 crore. "The company is investing Rs 25,000 crore which is the largest private sector investment in the state," Nagarjuna Group Managing Director and CEO S Ramasundaram said. Talking about the investors meet, he said that countries including Japan and France have confirmed their participation, while Singapore, Malaysia, South Africa, Canada, UK, Israel, South Korea are expected to confirm their participation. "Some of them are keen on electronic products. Many of them, particularly from Japan, are enquiring about ready built factories, industrial park where they can immediately move in," Shankar said.
- 79 - Three investors keen to take over Nokia's plant: Tamil Nadu Govt
Says I-T dept not allowing sell-off as it wants a guarantee of Rs 3,500 cr Mahesh Kulkarni | Bengalaru April 11, 2015 Last Updated at 00:47 IST
Three “serious investors”, including the Essar Group, have shown interest in buying the Nokia factory near Chennai, which was frozen by Income Tax (I-T) department on the alleged Rs 21,000-crore income tax dispute, according to a senior state government official. However, the fate of the plant at Sriperumbudur near Chennai continues to remain in the hands of the I-T department. “The ball is in the court of the I-T department and if they can convince the Delhi High Court and allow de-freezing of Nokia’s plant, the company can sell its assets and make part payment towards income tax arrears. There are two-to- three buyers ready to take over the Nokia plant,” said C V Sankar, additional chief secretary, industries department, government of Tamil Nadu. Sankar was in Bengalaru for a roadshow on the upcoming Global Investors Meet (GIM), organised by Tamil Nadu government on May 23 and 24. “The authorities (I-T department) are sticking to their stand demanding a guarantee of Rs 3,500 crore over an ongoing dispute. The company is trying to get its assets de-frozen by the court so that it can sell its assets and make part payment towards the tax arrears,” said Sankar, who confirmed that Essar Group was in the race to take over the plant, located around 45 km from Chennai. The plant, which was once the largest and the most cost-effective for Nokia, also received interest from two more investors, said Sankar. “Apart from Essar, a couple of other companies have shown interest to take over the plant. Nokia has told us that they have a very serious investor to take over the plant. They have not disclosed the name of the investor and they will divulge the details only if the Delhi High Court de-freezes their assets. So, it all depends on how quick the I-T department agrees,” said Sankar. It may be noted that apart from the I-T department's claim, the Tamil Nadu government had also slapped a tax notice on the company asking it to pay Rs 912 crore and Rs 600 crore as penalty. Because of the dispute, Nokia could not transfer the plant to Microsoft, which had bought Nokia's device business, and Nokia suspended operations in the plant in November 2014, which resulted in the loss of employment for around 30,000 people. “If the I-T department agrees and the court de-freezes Nokia’s assets, the company is ready to sell its plant and deposit the amount in a separate account and the money can be adjusted once the tax matter is decided by the court. Now, the Prime Minister has assured of reviving the plant. We hope some solution will come out very soon,” said Sankar. Nokia plant was set up in 2005 with about Rs 500 crore investment. At the peak of its operations, the plant produced 16 million handsets a month. The plant and machinery are in good condition and any new investors can start manufacturing from the first day of acquisition, Sankar added.

TN Govt postpones Global Investors Meet to September
Chennai, Apr 21 (PTI) Tamil Nadu government's flagship Global Investors Meet (GIM) in May was today postponed to September following requests from overseas investors, who sought more time to finalise the projects.
The meet was to be held on May 23 and 24, as announced by former Chief Minister Jayalalithaa in Assembly last year. She had said Rs 100 crore would be allocated to it.
Setting the tone for conducting the event, the government had undertaken roadshows in France, United Kingdom, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and Germany.
Similar roadshows were held in India in Bengaluru, New Delhi, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad and Coimbatore.
Noting that considerable interest was shown in investing in Tamil Nadu during the roadshows, an official release said "many foreign investors have represented that they would be in a position to commit much larger investment with some more time being made available to finalise such investment proposals".
"Further, a strong feedback has been received from many foreign investors that the event may be held after the summer season. The Global Investors Meet will now be held on September 9 and 10 at Chennai," it said.
For those who had already finalised investments in the state, government said necessary clearances would be given and Government Orders, including those committing necessary facilitation would be issued to them to enable signing of MoUs during the event.
"So far, investments worth Rs 53,000 crore in sectors other than energy and Rs 23,000 crore in the energy sector, totalling Rs 76,000 crore, have been lined up for signing of MoUs," the Government claimed.
Further roadshows are planned in China, Taiwan, and Pune, Mumbai, Kolkata, Salem, Madurai and Tuticorin, the release said.
