Maruti expects minority shareholder voting on Gujarat plant in October • Maruti Suzuki India, the country's largest car maker, expects voting by minority shareholders to happen sometime in October for approval of its plans to let parent Suzuki Motor Corp own a proposed new plant in Gujarat. • "We haven't yet fixed a date. It could be in October probably but not certain yet," Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) Chairman R C Bhargava told reporters in the national capital. • Speaking on the sidelines of a lecture in memory of the company's executive Awanish Dev, who was killed in worker violence at the company's plant in Manesar in 2012, Bhargava said MSI's move on the Gujarat plant would be beneficial to its shareholders. • As far as Gujarat (facility) structure is concerned, it is recognised that the structure we have envisaged is beneficial to Maruti shareholders... The major issue which they raised (institutional investors) are regrading why higher dividends are paid, why is royalty audited. On structure, there are no real issues now, he said. • When asked how confident the management was to get minority shareholder approval, MSI Managing Director and CEO Kenichi Ayukawa said, "...because of the way we communicated our sincerity to the investors, we did not get any negative response. We are expecting to get better results.” Source: http://businesstoday.intoday.in
