The site seems down.. so this is a cached page... Thanks so much to Google.

But the news sure seems dated!

Hey the link is not getting posted correctly.. Have mailed Sunny for that. There is a work around tho.

Type the following in Google (http://www.google.com):

[u]Bajaj sues Hero Honda

And hit search.

You will get it as the first result. Dont click on the link.. click on the grey 'Cached' below. You'll get it.

This is the transcript tho!


Vol. 4 Issue No. 6

Unfair Trade Practices

India
Bajaj Auto sues Hero Honda for misleading consumers in India

Bajaj Auto has challenged Hero Honda's claim of being the world's number one two-wheeler manufacturer, and filed a complaint with the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI).

The complaint was filed by Leo Burnett, one of the advertising agencies for Bajaj.

Hero Honda's claim is based on its two-wheeler sales for the year ended March 31, 2002.

Leo Burnett has asked ASCI to intervene and prevent Hero Honda from issuing advertisements claiming it is the world's largest producer of two-wheelers because it is an attempt to mislead consumers.

We can't be sure... it still might be...or it may not be. Can never say..unless the case is settled!

How come it never came in the Indian Press?
