On October 22, Mr. Sunil Chahure, the newly appointed General Manager of Global Purchasing of Mahindra, and Mr. Rajesh Pandey, the deputy General Manager of Global Purchasing visited our company and conducted a visit and investigation to the company. This is the first subsidiary of Tri-ring Group visited by Mahindra's senior management after Mahindra Global Purchasing Director, Mr. Sikka, visited Tri-ring group in August 2016 to reach a strategic partnership.
GM Lei Senlin warmly welcomed the arrival of Mahindra's senior management. Both sides had in-depth exchanges on the continuous improvement of the mechanical steering gear currently in cooperation and the two new projects of the company's electric power steering gear （EPS） and High-end Commercial Vehicle power steering gear （FNBK）. Lei Senlin personally introduced EPS and FNBK projects to the visiting Indian guests. It is reported that in recent years, facing the shrinking and high-end trend of the commercial vehicle market, the expanding and electronic market of passenger cars, the company has invested 270 million and 630 million RMB respectively in EPS and FNBK projects, closely focusing on the development strategy of “structural adjustment, upgrading and internationalization” of Tri-ring Group, standing at the highest point in the industry with high starting point, large investment and large scale. This is an important strategic decision made by the company to seize the favorable opportunity for market adjustment, adhere to the strategy of developing commercial vehicles and passenger cars simultaneously, and adapt to product transformation and upgrading. At present, the annual output of EPS is 200,000 units, mainly supporting the first-class domestic automobile factories such as Chang 'an, BAIC, FOTON and Dongfeng. FNBK project is expected to be put into production by the end of this year.
