All 3 plants BS-IV compliant from January: Bajaj Auto

With effect from January 2017, all products from its three plants are BS-IV compliant

Bajaj Auto on Wednesday announced it is ready to comply with Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority’s direction of neither selling nor registering any pre–BS-IV vehicle from April 1. All its two and three-wheelers manufactured from January 2017 meet the stringent Bharat Stage (BS)-IV norms, it said. 

It is probably the first automaker to completely meet BS-IV norms well before the deadline of April 1. The Central Pollution Control Board had earlier confirmed that BS-III compliant vehicles could not be sold or registered anywhere in the country from April 1. However, some automobile companies have requested this deadline be extended.
