Air India is India's national flag carrier. Although air transport was

15, 1932. It was on this day that J.R.D. Tata, the father of Civil
Aviation in India and founder of Air India, took off from Drigh Road
Airport, Karachi, in a tiny, light single-engined de Havilland Puss Moth
on his flight to Mumbai (then known as Bombay) via Ahmedabad.
He landed with his precious load of mail on a grass strip at Juhu.
At Mumbai, Neville Vintcent, a former RAF pilot who had come to India

Apollo Tyres Ltd is a high-performance company and the leading Indian
tyre manufacturer. Head quartered in Gurgaon, a corporate-hub in the

dynamic organisation, which takes pride in its unique identity.
Registered as a company in 1976, Apollo is built around the core
principles of creating stakeholder value through reliability in its
products and dependability in its relationships.
Apollo’s present strength and market dynamism steps from its early years
of strife in establishing itself as a tyre manufacturer within the closed
Indian economy. Over two decades, Apollo worked on a portfolio of
products, tuned to customer needs and an array of innovative marketing
initiatives to establish itself as a leader in its home market. Some of
these include segmenting customers by their load and mileage requirements,
running tyre loyalty programmes, establishing customer contact programmes
which resulted in better health and driving habits, introducing India’s
first farm radials and India’s first range of high-speed tubeless
passenger car tyres.
For the first time, in 2006 Apollo ventured outside India in its quest to
test itself outside its home comforts. Apollo acquired Dunlop Tyres
International Pty Ltd in South Africa (since renamed as Apollo Tyres
South Africa Pty Ltd) and Zimbabwe, taking on southern Africa as the
second domestic market. The company holds brand rights for the Dunlop
brand across 30 African countries.
In 2009, Apollo acquired Vredestein Banden B V in the Netherlands, and
thereby adding Europe as its third crucial market.
The company currently produces the entire range of automotive tyres for
ultra and high speed passenger cars, truck and bus, farm, Off-The-Road,
industrial and specialty applications like mining, retreaded tyres and
retreading material. These are produced across Apollo’s eight manufacturing
locations in India, Netherlands and Southern Africa. A ninth facility is
currently under construction in southern India, and is expected to
commence production towards the end of 2009. The major brands produced
across these locations are: Apollo, Dunlop, Kaizen, Maloya, Regal and
Vredestein.
In the three domestic markets of India, Southern Africa and Europe,
Apollo operates through a network of branded, exclusive or multi-product
outlets. In South Africa the branded outlets are called Dunlop Zones,
while in India they are variously named Apollo Tyre World
(for commercial vehicles) and Apollo Radial World (for passenger cars).
Exports out of these three key manufacturing locations reach over 70
destinations across the world, with key comprising Europe, Africa,
the Middle East and South-East Asia.
For Apollo Tyres, offering the right product to the right customer is
essential. Special efforts are made to understand customer needs and
segment the market accordingly. After which, products are developed for
niche applications within a larger category to enable the company to
provide efficient, fuel and cost-saving products to each customer segment.
Innovation has always been an integral part of the Apollo way of doing
business, this applies as much to product development and marketing as
to how the company as a whole is focused on challenging existing
boundaries.
An integral part of the Apollo Tyres world is its community involvement
and giving programmes directly related to its business. In India, the
focus has always been on finding ways to ensure a direct benefits to
customer groups. For the commercial vehicle community the company runs
extensive HIV-AIDS awareness and prevention programmes and has established
Health Care Clinics across the country to cater to the community’s
health needs. For passenger car customers the focus is on cultivating Safe
Driving habits. Across its manufacturing locations, the key initiatives
revolve around health and education programmes.

14.Ashok Leyland
The origin of Ashok Leyland can be traced to the urge for self-reliance,
felt by independent India. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime
Minister persuaded Mr. Raghunandan Saran, an industrialist, to enter
automotive manufacture. In 1948, Ashok Motors was set up in what was then
Madras, for the assembly of Austin Cars. The Company's destiny and name
changed soon with equity participation by British Leyland and
Ashok Leyland commenced manufacture of commercial vehicles in 1955.
Since then Ashok Leyland has been a major presence in India's commercial
vehicle industry with atradition of technological leadership, achieved
through tie-ups with international technology leaders and through
vigorous in-house R&D.
Access to international technology enabled the Company to set a tradition
to be first with technology. Be it full air brakes, power steering or
rear engine busses, Ashok Leyland pioneered all these concepts.
Responding to the operating conditions and practices in the country,
the Company made its vehicles strong, over-engineering them with extra
metallic muscles. "Designing durable products that make economic sense
to the consumer, using appropriate technology", became the design
philosophy of the Company, which in turn has moulded consumer attitudes
and the brand personality.
Ashok Leyland vehicles have built a reputation for reliability and
ruggedness. The 5,00,000 vehicles we have put on the roads have
considerably eased the additional pressure placed on road transportation
in independent India.
In the populous Indian metros, four out of the five State Transport
Undertaking (STU) buses come from Ashok Leyland. Some of them like
the double-decker and vestibule buses are unique models from Ashok
Leyland, tailor-made for high-density routes.
In 1987, the overseas holding by Land Rover Leyland International
Holdings Limited (LRLIH) was taken over by a joint venture between
the Hinduja Group, the Non-Resident Indian transnational group and IVECO.
(Since July 2006, the Hinduja Group is 100% holder of LRLIH).
The blueprint prepared for the future reflected the global ambitions
of the company, captured in four words: Global Standards, Global Markets.
This was at a time when liberalisation and globalisation were not yet
in the air. Ashok Leyland embarked on a major product and process
upgradation to match world-class standards of technology.
In the journey towards global standards of quality, Ashok Leyland
reached a major milestone in 1993 when it became the first in India's
automobile history to win the ISO 9002 certification. The more
comprehensive ISO 9001 certification came in 1994, QS 9000 in 1998 and
ISO 14001 certification for all vehicle manufacturing units in 2002.

rear engine busses, Ashok Leyland pioneered all these concepts.
Responding to the operating conditions and practices in the country,
the Company made its vehicles strong, over-engineering them with extra
metallic muscles. "Designing durable products that make economic sense
to the consumer, using appropriate technology", became the design
philosophy of the Company, which in turn has moulded consumer attitudes
and the brand personality.
Ashok Leyland vehicles have built a reputation for reliability and
ruggedness. The 5,00,000 vehicles we have put on the roads have
considerably eased the additional pressure placed on road transportation
in independent India.
In the populous Indian metros, four out of the five State Transport
Undertaking (STU) buses come from Ashok Leyland. Some of them like
the double-decker and vestibule buses are unique models from Ashok
Leyland, tailor-made for high-density routes.
In 1987, the overseas holding by Land Rover Leyland International
Holdings Limited (LRLIH) was taken over by a joint venture between
the Hinduja Group, the Non-Resident Indian transnational group and IVECO.
(Since July 2006, the Hinduja Group is 100% holder of LRLIH).
The blueprint prepared for the future reflected the global ambitions
of the company, captured in four words: Global Standards, Global Markets.
This was at a time when liberalisation and globalisation were not yet
in the air. Ashok Leyland embarked on a major product and process
upgradation to match world-class standards of technology.
In the journey towards global standards of quality, Ashok Leyland
reached a major milestone in 1993 when it became the first in India's
automobile history to win the ISO 9002 certification. The more
comprehensive ISO 9001 certification came in 1994, QS 9000 in 1998 and
ISO 14001 certification for all vehicle manufacturing units in 2002.
It has also become the first Indian auto company to receive the latest
ISO/TS 16949 Corporate Certification (in July 2006) which is specific
to the auto industry.
