BACKGROUND
The vision to develop a truly
indigenous Diesel Engine for marine applications under the ‘Make in India’
mission, would require an exercise to rope in major ‘local Indian players with proven track record of developing and
manufacturing IC engine.’
All
global players in marine diesel engine business
spend their R&D costs on automotive power train development either
in agriculture or mining industry. This calls for the need to engage with
home grown Indian automotive players to step into the high margin business
of marine diesel engine.
