This is interesting. The news comes when the British PM Boris Johnson is in India. He mentioned that TVS owns Norton and will be investing it the revival.

In his press address just an hour back, he coined a term "BRINDIAN" which means :-

1) A company that is owned by India but has manufacturing in UK, eg- JLR &
2) A company that is owned by Britain but has manufacturing in India, eg - JCB

I am excited to see legendary brands being re-born.
