Honda Cars gets green nod for Rs 1,577-cr expansion project

Honda Cars has received the environment clearance for a Rs 1,577-crore expansion project at its Tapukara plant in Rajasthan.

Honda Cars India Ltd (HCIL) wants to expand the production capacity at the Tapukara plant in Alwar district along with indigenisation of various car parts to reduce the cost of its products.

The company's proposal was first examined by an expert panel last month and based on its recommendations, the environment ministry gave the go-ahead to the expansion project.

The environment clearance has been given subject to the compliance of certain specific and general conditions, the ministry said in a letter issued to HCIL.
