GM shuts Halol plant for a fortnight

General Motors India has temporarily closed production at its plant in Halol near Vadodara. The plant has been shut for about a fortnight. However, company officials have maintained that the closure is a routine exercise and is not a fallout of ongoing global meltdown.

“There will be no production at the company’s Halol unit for about two weeks”, said P Balendran, vice-president, GM India. The company has shut production from 13 December to 30 December.
