NATIONAL ACTIVITY

TAASE, was not only an indicator of the growth of the Indian automotive after-market but a window to the consumer on what best is available in the after -market either "Made in India" or Made Overseas"

The 5 day Exposition came to close with a flourish-the traditionally dressed Spanish Band marched through TAASE and ENTERPRISE, creating an almost (happy ending) Pied-Piper like pageant! It was a wonderful finish and a great way to say" Let us meet again". For this, we must thank our colleague and Co-ordinator, Monika Sain, whose brain-wave brought the Band to the hall.


Rounding off TAASE was a very successful dinner on 17.2.2001 hosted by the ACMA President Mr.L Ganesh and Mrs. Ganesh. Present were guests from the automobiles and auto-component industry, the press (domestic and overseas), associated organisations like JETRO, ASSOCHAM, CII, IMTMA, the diplomatic corp and special invitees of overseas visitors to the Exhibition.
