The revamping of the Ambassador is to hike the sales of the company which was speedily losing its grip in the domestic market. HM was at the verge to be in the BIFR because of the 90 per cent networth fading in the beginning of this year.

He also said that the capacity at the Chennai unit at present is utilized almost to 40 per cent but it will experience a noted hike as Mitsubishi is expected to come with more variants in India. It will also be looking at the proper utilization of capacity and in component business. He also mentioned that the company sold 8,000 cars in 2009 and expects to cross the sale to 10,000 cars in this fiscal year.

Mr. Jha also said that, the company is also planning to launch a hatchback car in few months, but the company will first seek the feedback on the new version of Ambassador.

Jha revealing the plans said that HM is also keen on spreading its presence in India. It will expand on its dealerships network and is planning to double it in the coming year. Jha said that, if the price of raw material will experience the same hike, the company will be forced to increase the price of its vehicles from Rs 2,000 to Rs 3,000. He said this fading away the concerns over the Rs 70 crore debts which Hindustan Motors is already running in.
