Bajaj Auto said said workmen at its Chakan plant in Pune have stopped coming to work. The company said the workers had earlier given a notice for a stoppage of work at the plant from the morning shift of 28 June 2013.
The workmen have, however, stopped coming to the Chakan plant from 25 June 2013, itself, without assigning any reason for this stoppage, the company said in a filing.
The company said it had earlier received a notice from the workmen's union of its Chakan plant -- Vishwa Kalyan Kamgar Sanghatana -- stating that they propose to call for a stoppage of work by all the workmen employed in Chakan plant from the morning shift of 28 June 2013.
The reason for the strike was that management had refused to concede their demand that all the workmen working in Bajaj Auto should each be given an option to subscribe to 500 equity shares of the company at a discounted price of Re 1 per share, Bajaj Auto added.
