Tata Group seeks Punjab land for new car factory

According to news reports the Tata Group has requested the Punjab government for 1,000 acres of land near Chandigarh for setting up a car manufacturing facility. The Tata Group has been looking at locations for their small-car project that aims to sell over a million cars in the Rs. 1 lakh price range by 2010.
