23. Economic downturn hit group 23
hard
All was not well in the Kirloskar group. The Kirloskar group companies
had been passing through difficult times.
The downturn in the economy coupled with the slump in the capital
and engineering industry, had affected bottom lines of group
companies. The respected Kirloskar name took a beating when the
finance company in the group Kirloskar Finance & Investment
defaulted on deposits and was unable to pay off depositors.
This was further damaged when Vijay Kirloskar sold his stake in the
finance company to the Ahmedabad-based businessman Hari Singh
Champawat.
Inability to pump in investments into the joint venture with Toyota also
affected the group.
