How many Nanos have been booked?

WE HAVE all been reading and reviewing the articles on Tata Nano. But the question that is haunting our minds is-  What is the number of bookings Tata Motors has finally received for the dream car: Nano? No body has the answer except from Tata Motors.


It was said that Tata would be announcing the official figures on April 28, but we have not heard any thing so far.


The news that the bookings are still being accepted is disturbing to all, as this would further dampen the chances of the allotment in the first batch.


It is pretty obvious that more the registrations, lesser would be the probability of an individual getting his name amongst those getting the first lot of one lakh cars.

I believe all of us as citizens of India and the people who have opted to register for the car need to stand together and tell Tata Motors of what is happening in the market and that it would spoil their reputation in the market.
