The consent order, dated July 10, 2025, authorizes Epic Motors to establish a facility for the “Repairing and Servicing of Four Wheelers,” with a capacity to handle 75 vehicles per day. This is a significant development that is expected to bring new services and potentially job opportunities to the region.

It’s important to note that this is a “Consent to Establish.” EPIC MOTORS INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED cannot begin operations until they obtain a “Consent to Operate” from the TNPCB, a process that requires compliance with all the conditions outlined in this establishment consent. They are required to apply for the “Consent to Operate” at least thirty days before commencing trial production.

This development marks a positive step for industrial growth in Cuddalore, with a clear commitment to environmental responsibility. We look forward to seeing EPIC MOTORS INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED contribute to the local economy while upholding environmental standards.
