Tata vows to meet Nano deadline

India's Tata Motors insisted Thursday it would stick to its planned schedule for the high-profile rollout of the world's cheapest car as it shifted equipment from the plant due to make it.
The vehicle giant began moving machinery and equipment from the factory in West Bengal state Wednesday after months of protests over a land dispute.
"The Nano car will roll out during the last quarter of the calendar year between October and December as promised," a senior Tata Motors official said.
The firm, part of the sprawling tea-to-steel Tata Group, has said, however, it will try to launch the car, slated to cost 100,000 rupees (2,150 dollars) as near to next month's big-spending Hindu festival season as possible.
The official would not say where the Nano -- dubbed the "People's Car" and aimed at making automobile transport affordable to ordinary Indians -- would be built except it would be at "one of our existing manufacturing facilities.”
