This is Tata Motors Design Centre. Basically this facility is present in the University of Warwick and it hosts multiple Tata group properties like JLR and Battery manufacturing company under TATA Agratas.

In terms of Industry - Academic collaboration this is how it should be done. The students will get an chance to work as interns, involve in design projects. Apart from this another Design studio is present in the Italy and Pune (Interior design Studio).

On the other hand our IIT's does not have these kind of collaboration unfortunately. Majority of them were DRDO and ISRO type projects and very few private companies started to invest recently. Eg. Mahindra Research Valley is here in Chennai and this Area have R&D for BMW and other companies also but at the same time Chennai have IIT Madras, IIIT Chennai, CEG (Anna University), Madras Institute of Technology (APJ sir is an Alumni, lot of DRDO/ISRO scientist were came from here). But none of this Institution have this much synergy what University of Warwick had.

Blame is on both ends since IIT's are still not ready to take step up and our Private baniyas are more interested in using the existing tech by ToT instead of creating them in house.

Nice, just curious how did they get a name like 'Hughes' Was it originally a U.K or even U.S company, that Indians bought ?
I'd assume this is most likely an offshoot of the North American Hughes Precision. The OG precision company is going through a restructure after the founder Robert Hughes died in 2020.
Infringing on that name would not be easy.

he does not want to do it, he wants somebody else to bell the cat, that's his business call.

in what ever western business school or company he studied/worked in, somehow he missed out on the learning that, interaction between policy makers and industry has to be constant, western companies do it all the time and get their things done, but our fellows tell us stories. and once you insert a line, it's gormint's fault, most people buy into it pretty quick.

there will be more to that story.

changes are going to be iterative in policy space, the same happened with IBC as well, govt didn't get it right the first time either, there was constant engagement with stake holders, and kept changing making changes, and there will be changes in the future as well.

we have to keep in mind, gormint is not a subject matter expert, they rely on industry for inputs. and it's not the case that everyone belonging to the industry are all from same school of thought.

The FAME incentive eligibility comes ONLY if vehicle is priced below 1.50 Lakhs - but then if your vehicle is priced above 1.5Lakhs - individuals will NOT get FAME subsidy but Ather also will lose the Govt support for EV! So Ather will lose more than customers
They joined EV market way before OLA yet could not build a more economical product, then maybe they should not be in the business.

ather's patent filing has dropped since their peak in 2016, which can be interpreted as they are no longer spending enough in R&D.
