Ford likely to locate second car manufacturing plant in Gujarat
AHMEDABAD:US carmaker Ford is likely to make an announcement on the setting up its secondcar manufacturing facility in Sanand taluka near here, official sources said on Tuesday.
Ford India's proposed site is likely to be next to Tata Nano's plant in Sanand. The company currently has a manufacturing facility at Chennai.
"Ford has been in discussion with the government to set up its second car manufacturing plant at an investment of nearly Rs 5,000 crore. It has decided on a 400 acres of land at Sanand for the facility," the state government officials told PTI.
The District Collector of Ahmedabad is in the process of earmarking 400 acres of land in Sanand, nearly 40 km from here, for Ford India, they said.
In reply to a query on announcement of manufacturing facility in Gujarat,Ford India in a statement said, "As part of our plan to introduce eight new products by the middle of the decade, Ford is expanding its capacities at its existing facility in Tamil Nadu as well as exploring other options."

Anshu Jain first non-European to head Deutsche Bank; becomes most powerful banker in Eurozone's largest economy
LONDON: Usually, when banks announce succession plans, a handful of Wall Street analysts sit up and pay attention.
But whenDeutsche Bank announced early on Tuesday thatAnshu Jain and Juergen Fitschen would become co-CEOs, with current chief executiveJoseph Ackerman taking over as chairman of the board, it came at the end of months, even years, of intense debate around the world, polarising opinion across cultural and national boundaries, between Wall Street and high street.
Anshu Jain becomes the first non-European to head up DB, and the first Indian among a handful of non-Europeans to head any large, listed European firm.
As head of Deutsche Bank, he becomes, simply, the mostpowerful banker in the Eurozone's largest economy. Jain is no stranger to power. The Jaipur-born, America-trained Jain is the darling of Wall Street, the City of London and DB's shareholders. He's got an enormous power base and is considered the best banker who's not a CEO in London, and one of the most influential globally.
It's no wonder that over the past few months, Jain has kept a low profile, shunning public appearances or media interviews, and quietly focused on keeping the profit counters ringing. During the time he has started to learn German.
It's widely understood that Jain will actually run the bank while Juergen Fitschen, who handles DB's German operations, will handle the political and corporate schmoozing, as well as DB's staff unions. Deutsche has a history of joint CEOs, a management system that hasn't worked well in other global companies. In this case though, Fitschen, who said he couldn't ask for a better partner than Jain, is due to retire in three years. The move is seen as giving Jain, 48, time to make himself acceptable to the natives.
Sections of the German media hailed Jain's appointment as proof that Germany is not, as is often portrayed by the US media, insular or anti-multicultural, or that theGerman government would have any problems with him.
Jain's middle-class origins and his record of hard work and academic brilliance seem to strike a chord with the Germans. Deutsche's supervisory board, which has struggled with the succession issue for years, had a peculiar problem.
On the one hand, it had the indisputably brilliant Jain. His credentials include catapulting DB from a stodgy German bank into the top global league tables in the 16 years he has slowly worked his way to the top. He's also delivered, year on year, the major chunk of the bank's profits, and managed to steer it safely, if not unscathed, through the financial crisis of 2008.

Anil Ambani group's Reliance Capital to hire 3,500 managers, 50,000 insurance agents
NEW DELHI: Having witnessed a dip of over 4,500 staff from its headcount in last fiscal, Anil Ambani group's financial services arm Reliance Capital will hire over 3,500 managers for its various businesses this year.
Besides, the company also plans to hire 50,000 insurance agents in the current financial year ending March 2012, Reliance Capital CEO Sam Ghosh told media.
The large-scale hiring plans comes on the back of the company witnessing a decline of 4,550 people from its headcount in its insurance, mutual fund and other businesses during the fiscal ended March 31, 2011.
The company's total headcount stood at 18,069 as on March 31, 2011, down from 22,619 employees a year ago on March 31, 2010, as per its financial presentations for the two fiscals. Reliance Capital now plans to increase its headcount to near 21,000 people in the current fiscal, Ghosh said.
Reliance Capital is the financial services arm of the Anil Ambani group, which also has presence in businesses like telecom, power, infrastructure, media and entertainment.
The group employee strength also dipped by around 10,000 employees between May, 2010 and March, 2011, but latest figures are not available for across-the-group headcount.
As per a Reliance Capital investor presentation in March 2011, ADAG had "120,000 young, trained and motivated people" across its various group companies, as against a figure of "130,000 young, trained and motivated people" mentioned in a previous presentation dated May, 2010.
The sharp decline in Reliance Capital's headcount during 2010-11 was mainly due to life insurance business, while asset management, broking and destribution and general insurance segments also saw their staff strength declining in the year.
Asked about the decline in staff strength, Ghosh said it was largely because of a cyclical movement of people in life insurance business and the company has already started a major hiring drive.
"The fluctuation in headcount last year was predominately on account of cyclical movement of sales managers seen in life insurance business. We have already started hiring sales managers for our life insurance business and will be crossing the 12,000 headcount mark by July," Ghosh said.
"In addition, we also plan to add 50,000 agents in our insurance business during this fiscal," he added. The insurance agents are not included in the company's headcount.
Across the various businesses, Reliance Capital will hire more than 3,500 managers and take the total headcount to near 21,000 people, Ghosh said.
"Reliance Capital plans to hire over 3500 managers and ramp up its head count to around 21,000, across businesses, in this fiscal," he noted.
