Automation & Control Systems

The world's largest producer of smoke detectors and a leadership position in the Indian automation and control industry.

The Tata group is exiting its 15-year-old joint venture, Tata Honeywell, by selling its 40.62 per cent stake (35.91 lakh shares) to the US-based Honeywell for Rs 126 crore. The two sides hold an equal stake with the balance 18.76 per cent held by financial institutions and public.

In India, Honeywell also has a R&D software centre in Bangalore. Its other subsidiary, Honeywell India based in Gurgaon, operates in aerospace and transportation space. The buyout maybe a precursor to the consolidation of Honeywell operations in India. Tata Honeywell registered a 27 per cent growth in turnover to Rs 342.4 crore for 2003-04 compared with Rs 26.91 crore in fiscal 2002-03. During the same period, the company's net profit increased 51 per cent to Rs 25.3 crore compared with Rs 16.8 crore for the year ending March 31, 2003.

Honey well came to our college for recruitment....
I belong to the ECE branch...
There were three sections namely..
1. AT (Quans and reasoning)
2. C Test
3. Technical... (Digital electronics,DSP,Control Systems,LIC,Micro processors and controllers).

another an economist...

* The quans was ok... problems based on cisterns,volume.profit and loss, work.... and a couple of ques on Venn Diagram.

Section 2:

Most of them were easy... but there were tougher ones based on files and unions.
