| Re: Honda 2-Wheelers to add 1 more production line at Narsapura Saw another thread on Honda expanding car production capacity and this one for two wheeler expansion - they seem really bullish on the Indian market in both categories. In all, they have announced around INR 1000 crores of investment in a day.  |
