In its summary prepared for the ECC, the Ministry of Industries, in a meeting on November 10, revealed that Atlas Honda had pressed for application of the new entrant policy with incentives to the motorcycle manufacturers bringing new technology.
The ministry said a committee, constituted by the ECC, reviewed the technological difference between the new model of Atlas Honda and the models already being assembled in the country.
It arrived at the consensus that keeping in view the technological difference, comments of members and technical input of the Engineering Development Board (EDB), the new model of Atlas Honda ? Honda SDH CBF-150 ? should be granted the new entrant status.
