PERSONAL ATTRIBUTES OF
ANAND MAHINDRA
BE ASSERTIVE:

It wasn't exactly a rosy picture back in 1991 when Anand Mahindra
had to pacify the protesting workers at Mahindra & Mahindra plant in
Mumbai. Reason? He had refused giving Diwali bonus until the workers
increased their productivity. And while the workers furiously agitated,
the 36 year old deputy managing director held his ground until the
workers calmed down.

DETERMINATION:
Being one of the pre-independence era companies, Anand Mahindra
had theHerculean taskof growing the company at a time when India had
to undergo a major change in its economy. The License Raj came to an end
in 1991 and the market opened up to foreign players. It was Mahindra's
sheer determination that helped this homegrown company to grow into
one of the largest conglomerates in the country.

DREAM BIG:
Do you think it would have been possible for M&M to grow into such
a large conglomerate, had Mahindra not dreamed big? We don't think so.
The man had the courage to dream big and look where M&M is today.

EVOLVE:
Being open to new changes is extremely important for one's growth.
And no one epitomizes this more than Anand Mahindra. Even though he
belongs to the old school of corporate honchos, Mahindra is active on
social media, which means he is successfully making a connection with the
younger generation seamlessly and knows the pulse of the consumers.

MAHINDRA
FORD- MAHINDRA JOINT VENTURE:

In 1995, Mahindra & Mahindra had formed a
50:50 joint venture with Ford to diversify into the
passenger car segment. The venture made Ford
Escort cars in India.
Ford took its ownership to 72 per cent in March
1998 and later increased its holding further, even as
Mahindra & Mahindra restrained additional
investment.
The car was priced out of the reach of most buyers,
and was also marred by quality problems.
Mahindra & Mahindra gradually diluted its
holdings in Ford India over the next few years,
before completely exiting the joint venture in 2005.

MAHINDRA-RENAULT JOINT VENTURE:

Mahindra & Mahindra's partnership with Renault
didn't last long either. The 51:49 joint venture
started selling the Logan in July 2007.
In April 2010, Mahindra bought out Renault's
stake in the venture for an undisclosed amount
and the partners parted ways as the venture didn't
bring the desired results.
Sales of Logan cars dropped because of costlier
prices, the engines were imported from France,
forcing the joint venture to price the sedan higher
than the segment leaders Maruti Suzuki and
Tata Motors.
The other reason it was priced high because of
high taxes, tax charged for Logan were 20 %.

MAHINDRA-NAVISTAR JOINT VENTURE:

Thirty months since the first Mahindra Navistar truck rolled
out of the joint venture facility,M&M has said it intends to
purchase Navistar International Corps stake in Mahindra
Navistar Automotives Ltd (MNAL) and Mahindra Navistar
Engines Pvt Ltd (MNEPL).
M&M holds a 51 per cent stake in both the companies, with
the US-based Navistar holding the remaining 49 per cent
stake.
The American truck-maker is going through a tough period
and is prioritising business in the US and Canada. As a
result, it has frozen investments in countries such as India.
M&M would take ownership of operations and continue to
sell MNEPL and MNAL products. Navistar would continue
to source components from India, while Mahindra would
continue to provide engineering services to Navistar.
