ENS ECONOMIC BUREAU
MUMBAI, FEB 25: FAG Kugelfischer George Schaefer AG, Germany, has hiked its equity holding in FAG precision Bearings Ltd to 51 per cent (earlier 40 per cent). FAG Precision had reported a sales turnover of Rs 128.32 crore for the last financial year of 9 months which on an annualised basis works out to Rs 171.00 crore keeping a growth of 6 per cent over the turnover during the last financial year 1997-98. The company has repeatedly shown a positive bottom line in spite of recession in the bearings sector.The German firm has been working towards increasing its equity in the Indian operations since 1997.
