He said TVS Motor will close this fiscal with a turnover of around Rs.6,000 crore hoping to gain a market share of 17 percent.
On the exports front, Srinivasan said the company hopes to increase it to 20 percent of the revenue by 2012 from the current share of around seven percent.
About group company TVS Energy, he said the company’s windmills will start generating soon and plans are there to have a generation capacity of 200 MW in next couple of years.
