Enquiries "We believe official notification regarding pricing, bookings and other procedures will be made only after the launch," said Mandar Tamhane, director of Pratham Automobiles. Krupal Shah from Pratham said they've been fielding enquiries from buyers for over a year now. "We kept a drop box at our showroom and received more than 2,500 enquiries for the Nano in about a year's time," he said. Sources at Pandit Automotive Ltd said, "Even people who have multiple cars are interested in buying the Nano. Many working women have shown interest in the Nano. Also, people returning home from work stop at our showroom to enquire about the Nano and its booking procedure." Buyers excited Meanwhile, Puneites can't wait for the car to go on sale. "I will surely go for the Nano because Pune's roads are becoming unsafe for two-wheelers day by day. Also, with Nano's price is a huge attraction," said Medha Kulkarni, who works with a nationalised bank. Added Sandip Warke, a pharmaceutical trader, "I am considering buying the Nano, as it's only a little more expensive than a bike and I will be able to travel with my family very safely." Apart from the dealers, Nano's booking forms, which cost approximately Rs 300, will be available at all State Bank of India branches, Croma and Westside stores.
