Titan Industries Limited is the world's fifth largest wrist watch manufacturer and India's leading producer of watches under the Titan, Fastrack, Sonata, Nebula, RAGA, Regalia, Octane & Xylys brand names. It is a joint venture between the Tata Group, and the Tamil Nadu Industrial Development Corporation (TIDCO).[4] Its product portfolio includes watches, accessories and jewelry, in both contemporary and traditional designs. It exports watches to about 32 countries around the world with manufacturing facilities in Hosur, Dehradun, Goa and manufactures precious jewellery under the Tanishq brand name, making it India's only national jewelry brand.

These guys seriously need some design help - no offence. They've been lazily resting on their laurels for decades. What is up with that? Since they only make the casings, dials etc. (high quality quartz mechanism is sourced from Switzerland), they could have taken the captive India market by storm and done something with it. Instead they've shown a marked lack of pizzazz and panache in keeping up with global fashion trends in watches (such as rose gold color trends & stone embellishments for women, thin watches, multi-dial watches etc.).

Even crappy 'Dubai-only' brands like 'Omax' have better styling and selection. I mean - nobody is expecting Jaeger-LeCoultre or Piaget styling from Titan - but c'mon WTF??

On top of that - to add insult to injury, their prices aren't competitive outside of India either, compared to established current brands on the same range like Michael Kors. In India I notice their mainstay is the wedding market (watches being gifted to groom and bride). But in the SAARC markets ( especially talking about Dhaka - my hometown) they just couldn't make a dent in the quality watch market in spite of trying with multiple boutiques and ho-hum lackluster sales which they're happy with. I have friends in the business and this is what I have heard.
 
MOODS conodms

Moods Condoms is a condom made from natural rubber latex. It is manufactured HLL Lifecare Limited, a Government of India undertaking.HLL today is one of the world's largest manufacturers of condoms. As of December 2012, its annual production totals around 800 million pieces across the globe.:woot:
Moods is present in many overseas markets in nearly 30 countries such as Africa, South America and UAE and is soon to launch in the UK and the US. Due to its global presence, it maintains high quality standards where each condom is electronically tested for pinholes and weak spots and confirms to a range of international standards.
I know many of you dont had knowledge before reading this post that Mood is manufactured by a GOI PSU:enjoy:
 
Engines I posted are developed in India,some of these have a few components sourced/analysis conducted abroad ( Injectors,starter ,CRDI etc )

CRDI is not a component, its a technology based on certain principles.
Common Rail Diret (Fuel) Injection = CRDI.
Whole CRDI engine is different from previous NON CRDI Diesel engines..

Whole engine design is different overall...

Those engines are also made using modular manufacture. Four and six cylinder engine blocks can be cast from the same block by adding or subtracting two cylinders.

Sometimes engine mfrs. develop a common four cylinder engine and manufacture in a common plant (owned by all parties) to save costs. In the USA - one line of CRDI engine manufacture is shared by Chrysler, Mazda and Mitsubishi.

Not possible!
You forgot about the crankshaft...The backbone of the engine, mother of pistons..

We aren't talking about a tenth grade level science lesson.

Of course the crankshaft will be different (shorter). But cylinders, liners and a lot of other components will be common - therefore will save costs.

In any case this is OT because in India the learning curve is much higher for an indigenous engine and India is not at that stage yet. There are many steps of developing basic durability, understanding customers etc.

The Tata Indica and Scorpio have gone through major evolutions & revisions and the manufacturers are still learning. To jump the curve, they are forced to look for acquisitions so Tata setting up a research company based iin the UK and buying Jaguar LR. Mahindra has developed a research team and also outsourced this function.

In India people still think of Tatas and Mahindras as good for only 3 years of good service.....

Even if you look at China, the biggest sellers there are VW and GM (Buick). Local brands are not reliable yet -- it will take time.

Crankshaft would be larger or shorter depending upon number of pistons, and then the whole head assembly changes (with overhead valves) so the whole engine is different entirely. What adding piston/blocks/modular shik are you talking about?

Non sense

I know mate,I was mentioning the work done by AVL.

both aren't the flagship products of both companies.What do you mean ?

I should've clarified myself. I don't consider a copied motorcycle engine from Honda an indigenous effort. Indigenous means developed from design stage & from the ground up. And a car engine. Not a 200cc motorbike engine.

How do I put it..... ummm.... nobody cares what you think!! I consider indigenous meaning not only design, materials but the formula, number system, theories, pen, paper, computer and all related software/hardware used in everything associated with design process to be indigenous. then?
 
:woot::drag:

Way to Segway bud. What should indigenous mean?

I think generally people have agreed on a meaning worldwide on what indigenous means. Not what cockamime idea you or I came up with but a meaning by lexicon or dictionary.

In any case there aren't any 'indigenous' Indian developed automotive engines I know of. Anyone please enlighten me if I am wrong.

Care to show that definition? No blogs please. If there was any such definition, you wouldn't have used words like "i don't consider". Indigenous means agency has design control over the system level parameters. It may depend on various non-indigenous subsystems, but it doesn't make the system any less indigenous.
 
. I don't consider a copied motorcycle engine from Honda an indigenous effort.

What engine are you talking about ? For the 200 cc engine,only Bajaj has a 200 cc engine ,and that was developed indigenously.

Indigenous means developed from design stage & from the ground up. And a car engine.

see below.we have been developing LCV/MUV engines since the 1980s.

In any case there aren't any 'indigenous' Indian developed automotive engines I know of. Anyone please enlighten me if I am wrong.

See posts 511,512,513,524 & 527-all car,truck,LCV and tractor/backhoe engines indigenously developed by Tata,Mahindra,Ashok Leyland etc.
