Dear Sir,
It is my great pleasure to inform you that students of NIT Rourkela have qualified for the BAJA SAE ASIA 2010 to be held in Pithampur, Indore (M.P.) during 29th Jan to 31st Jan 2010. SAE Baja is a national event where teams of different institute compete with each other, run their ATV (All Terrain Vehicles) on rough tracks of Pithampur. The vehicle undergoes endurance testing, acceleration, design, braking, and durability testing along with cost and marketing analysis. This event mainly enriches the technical potentialities of the students and prepares them to be the best engineers of the Nation.
For details about BAJA SAE ASIA visit: www.bajasaeindia.org
List of institutes qualified for final event: http://www.bajasaeindia.org/downloads/MAIN_REV1.pdf
Our NITR team “Black Mamba” comprising of 17 dedicated and enthusiastic students had to clear different stages: Telephonic Interviews, presentations of vehicle aspect in Kolkata and a design report on Ansys before they qualified for the final round i.e. Physical Baja. They are among the four teams selected from Eastern India. They have designed the essential aspects of vehicle (i.e. Steering system, suspension, brakes, chassis, transmission and other ancillary components of the car). They delivered a beautiful presentation at Kolkata and were appreciated by the experts from Mahindra & Mahindra for their innovative ideas incorporated in the vehicle. After crossing all such hurdles these enthusiastic young engineers are almost at the edge to start fabricating their vehicle inside the N.I.T. campus.
To begin with they need financial assistance to fabricate the vehicle. The whole budget has been finalized to Rs 2.5 lacs approximately which includes the procurement of materials, travelling charges, Transportation, Registration fees etc. The institute has encouraged the students by paying the registration fees of Rs 35,000/-. Since the budget is quite high and expenses are unavoidable we seek your support in terms of finance. No doubt money is an essential aspect for participating in this event, but it is for the first time in NIT Rourkela such things are going to happen. These dedicated young engineers are giving their best effort to make it a great success and must have even forgotten about their placements.
You have shown your kind support in the past and this time the students need all your support in terms of financial as well as technical assistance to construct their dream vehicle. A separate bank account “BAJA SAE NITR” account no: 30856910161 has been opened at SBI, NIT Campus branch which is operated by both faculty advisors Prof. D.R.K. Parhi and Prof S.Murugan for the proper monetary transaction.
I wish your timely help, guidance and blessings to the students will bring pride to our institute.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Sincerely
Dr. Dayal R. Parhi

Agreement between Tata Motors Ltd., Government of West Bengal
and WBIDC:
1. Tata Motors Ltd. (TML) was intending to set up a manufacturing Plant for
Automobile Products including “Tata Small Car” to manufacture 250,000 cars
per annum on 2 shift basis which could be expanded to 350,000 on 3 shift basis.
In addition, it would have several Vendors and act as a mother plant for many
aggregates to tune of 500,000 cars. In this connection, TML was considering
locating the plant in the States of Uttarakhand/ Himachal Pradesh in view of the
fiscal incentive package for the rapid industrialization being made available by
the Govt. of India to new Industries in these States which has been attracting a
large number of industries to these States. The incentive package in
Uttarakhand/Himachal Pradesh consists of:-
(a) 100% exemption from Excise Duty for 10 years.
(b) 100% exemption from Corporate Income Tax for first 5 years and 30%
exemption from Corporate Income Tax for next 5 years.
2. The Government of West Bengal (GoWB) is keen to take appropriate steps
for rapid industrialization in West Bengal and in this connection wanted to
attract some major Automobile Projects to the State. The Government of
West Bengal approached TML to persuade them to locate an Automobile
Project including the project to manufacture “Tata Small Car” in West
Bengal. TML showed interest in locating the plant in West Bengal, provided
the State gave Fiscal incentive equivalent to the value of total incentives it
would have received by locating the plant in Uttarakhand / Himachal Pradesh.
GoWB offered to match the financial incentives in equivalent terms and
invited TML to set up the Small Car plant in West Bengal entailing
investment of over Rs. 1500 crores by TML. In addition, Vendors supporting
the project are likely to make further investment of over Rs. 500 crores.
3. Since then numerous discussions have been held and based on this
understanding, GoWB proceeded with identification of various lands for this
mega project. Land of approximately 1000 acres chosen in P. S. Singur of
District Hooghly was finalized with TML. West Bengal Industrial
2
Development Corporation Ltd. (WBIDC) commenced the process of
acquisition of this land. The process was completed with the Declaration of
Award under Section 11 of the Land Acquisition Act, and thereafter WBIDC
has obtained mutation of ownership in its name in the Record-of-Rights, and
conversion of usage of the land from agriculture to factory.
4. WBIDC is in possession of 997.11 acres of land, which has been acquired
under the Land Acquisition Act. Out of this, an area admeasuring 645.67
acres will be leased to TML for setting up the Automobile Project including
the small car plant, while an area admeasuring 290 acres will be leased to the
vendors to this Automobile Project approved by TML (ancillary and
component manufacturing units), 14.33 acres will be handed over by WBIDC
to WBSEB only for construction of 220/132/33 KV substation and the
balance admeasuring 47.11 acres will be used by WBIDC for rehabilitation
activities for the needy families amongst the Project affected persons.
5. The terms of lease to TML for the 645.67 acres of land for the mother plant
are described below. In addition, WBIDC will provide on lease 290 acres of
land to the Vendors selected and approved by TML on payment of Premium
equal to the actual cost of acquisition plus incidentals, to be calculated on the
basis of the total acquisition cost and other incidental expenses expended by
WBIDC or any of its subsidiaries (duly certified by its auditor) averaged over
the total land acquired. The lease rental payable per year per acre by the
vendors will be Rs. 8000/- per acre for the first 45 (forty five) years and
Rs. 16000/- per acre for the next 45 (forty five) years. The initial lease tenure
will be 90 years. On expiry of 90 years, the lease terms will be fixed on
mutually agreed terms at that point of time.
6. The parties also discussed mutually to finalise the package of incentives
required in order to enable GoWB to fulfill its commitment to match in
equivalent financial terms the fiscal incentive foregone by TML in
Uttarakhand. The Net Present Value (NPV) computation of benefits that the
project would have received in Uttarakhand is attached in Annexure I which
is agreed to by all the parties. Sample computation of benefits in West Bengal
3
with stated assumptions is given in Annexure II which is accepted by all
parties as agreed basis of computation. The NPV is calculated @ 11%.
7. Accordingly, it is finally agreed, in supersession of all previous decisions and
agreements in this regard, that for this mega project, the fiscal incentives
under Industrial Promotion Assistance in terms of the West Bengal Incentive
Scheme (WBIS 2004), assistance towards land cost and interest subsidy in the
form of a loan against a quantum of the term loan to be taken by TML for this
project will be offered by GoWB as follows:-
(a) WBIDC will provide Industrial Promotion Assistance in the form of a
Loan to TML at 0.1% interest per annum for amounts equal to gross VAT
and CST received by GoWB in each of the previous years ended 31st
March on sale of “Tata Small Car” from the date of commencement of
sales of the small car. This benefit will continue till the balance amount of
the Uttarakhand benefit (after deducting the amount as stated in para 7b
and 7c below) is reached on net present value basis, after which it shall be
discontinued. The loan with interest will be repayable in annual
installments starting from 31st year of commencement of sale from the
plant. The loan availed in the first year will be repaid in the 31st year and
the loan availed in the 2nd year will be repaid in the 32nd year and so on.
WBIDC will ensure that the loan under this head is paid within 60 days of
the close of the previous year (on 31st March) failing which WBIDC will
be liable to compensate TML for the financial inconvenience caused @
1.5 times the bank rate prevailing at the time on the amount due for the
period of such delay.
TML & GoWB will make best efforts to maximize sale of products from
the “Small Car Plant” in the State of West Bengal.
(b) WBIDC will provide 645.67 acres of Land to Tata Motors Ltd on a 90
year lease, on an annual lease rental of Rs. 1 crore per year for first 5
years with an increase @ 25% after every 5 years till 30 years. On expiry
of 30 years, the lease rental will be fixed at Rs. 5 crores per year, with an
increase @ 30% after every 10 years till the 60th year. On the expiry of 60
4
years, the lease rental will be fixed at Rs. 20 crores per year, which will
remain unchanged till the 90th year. On expiry of 90 years the lease terms
will be fixed on mutually agreed terms at that point of time. The benefit
on account of land would be calculated as the total land area leased out to
TML multiplied by the cost of acquisition calculated in the manner as
provided in para 5 less NPV of rent payable during 60 years.
(c) The West Bengal Govt. will provide to TML a loan of Rs. 200 crores
bearing @ 1% interest per year repayable in 5 equal annual installments
starting from the 21st year from the date of disbursement of loan. This
loan will be disbursed within 60 days of signing of this Agreement.
(d) The West Bengal Government will provide Electricity for the project at
Rs. 3/- per KWH. In case of more than Rs. 0.25 per KWH increase in
tariff in every block of five years, the Government will provide relief
through additional compensation to neutralize such additional increase.
8. It is also agreed that the computation of the comparison of benefits in
Annexure I and II will be changed if there are any changes in the rates of
excise duty and corporate income tax during the next 10 years.
