Tata Nano

The Irony

Tatas are planning to gift Nano to celebrities – few names include President Pratibha Patil, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Congress President Sonia Gandhi and Opposition Leader LK Advani, Sania Mirza, Sachin Tendulkar and Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

How about gifting to common man (say few of your workers/Taj hotel staff?), Mr. Tata? After all, Nano is meant to be a common man’s car.

What’s your opinion? Will you go for Nano?

      I hope this is not a phut story as India’s $10 laptop was :D

    2. w00t!! I can has a nano?

    3. Rizwan says:

      haha..I like the idea of giving it to the common man…I am the commonest it gets, Mr.Tata if u reading this, pass one on :D

    4. Sumeet says:

      The celebrities cant live without there BMWs and the likes…
      They will pass it on to their servants as a perk (maid/driver/gardener/chef) :)
      and TATA will still get the brand mileage(celebrity endorsement)…getting publicity on TV by just gifting 1 lac car is any day cheaper than buying ad slots ;)

      • Sameer says:

        @Sumeet, actually I disagree with you. If they gift Nano to, say families of Taj hotels’ employees (who died in Mumbai attack) – it;d have a much larger impact.

    5. Viral Sachde says:

      As per my knowledge, Tata Employees gets discounted Tata Products. (At-least was true for TCS long back.) I think, calling PM Manmohan Singh is not appropriate, although u have right to free speech.

      We are waiting for the Launch in Chennai. Definetely i would love to be a proud owner of the same it few months from now. It is for all political mileage Tata has to convince by giving free Cars to all those who have enough money and who would not be using the said car. It would be rather better to be gifted to those who saved lives from his prestigious Taj Hotel and to the commandos who have done a commendable job.

    10. Matt says:

      Writing from Michigan in the USA, this is an exciting car. I hope Mr. Tata bring it to the states as soon as possible as it would be a HIt at 6,000 USD. I doubt if many in India have any idea what an exciting car this would be for the average American. Hats off to Tata for this fine vehicle … and so sorry you bought Jag and Rover from Ford. You have my condolences.

Howrah but she now posted as a HA (F) at Kulai B.P.H.C./ Jalakandua , Panchla, Howrah. It is noted my husband Srish Chandra Bagh was a Freedom Fighter and expired on 27/03/1991.Now I have been hypertensive cardiac patient aged 87 years .Besides a pacemaker has been implanted and I have been frequently affected by T.I.A and suffering from poor vision due to vitreous hemorrhage. So I am in a precarious situation always under going medical treatment. In this situation my daughter in-law look after me so I badly need her presence without which any things may happen at any moment. It is also referred that I am being provided the due facilities like first class complimentary railways pass, free medical treatment ,subsidization of telephone charge and above all I am a pension recipient of central and state government as respectable person of family pensioner of Freedom Fighter (India Government-P.P.O-No-Pol/9103-C. State Government-P.P.O- No-Pen XI /SSS/610) .As you are giving me (State & Central Government ) all the enormous facilities so I hope you will give me this humble wanting. And I can hope that the posting order would be as early as possible at least she would be posted to nearby places like kulai B.P.H.C. Panchla, Howrah. or Gabberia Rural Hospital Panchla, Howrah if possible. But for this reason I have already prayed to D.D.H.S. (Nursing) West Bengal. But now I extremely sorry to say I have already prayed to you but incomplete on 16/09/10 for this reason further pray to you.
