Nano may hit road by Durga Puja

"We hope to start trial production during July or August. If everything went as planned, Nano would be rolled out from the plant during Durga Puja’’, Tata Motors said.
Kolkata: Tata Motors today said its ambitious Nano project was facing cost overrun but maintained the Rs one lakh car could be rolled out from its Singur facility by Durga Puja. Company Managing Director of the company Ravi Kant, who met West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadev Bhattacharjee at Writers' Buildings here, told reporters that the entire project had been reworked at the plant site at Singur due to floods last year which had led to the cost escalation.
"We have already sunk in Rs 2,000 crore", Kant said, adding earlier the project cost was pegged at Rs 1,700 crore.
Stating that Tata Motors was fully committed to the Singur project, Kant said if everything went well as planned, then the Nano car would be rolled out from the plant during Durga Puja.
"We hope to start trial production during July or August" he said.
Asked whether there was a possibility of Nano being rolled out from any other plant of Tata Motors, Kant said, "Nano will be produced out of West Bengal".
Kant had visited the Singur plant yesterday to review progress and held long discussions with suppliers and vendors
