Bosch (formerly Motor Industries), the Indian flagship of Germany-based automotive components maker Bosch, today said that it is shutting down temporarily select production areas, shops manufacturing nozzle holders, DN Nozzles and common rail injector assembly, at its Nashik plant starting from December 6, 2008.
The decision to shut down these plants is made in order to adjust production to meet the demand for products and to avoid unnecessary inventory buildup, the company said in a press release to the Bombay Stock Exchange.
This is the second time in less than 10 days that Bosch is closing down part of its manufacturing facilities. Earlier, on November 28 and 29, the company had shut down its Nashik plant and the manufacturing activity of starters and generators at its Naganathapura plant near Bangalore between November 26 and November 29, 2008.
