Tenneco RC India Pvt Ltd, a unit of US based Tenneco Inc that makes emission control and ride control systems, plans to invest about USD 20 million to expand in the lucrative Indian market in three to five years.

Mr Abhijit Mukherjee MD of Tenneco told Reuters that Tenneco, which sells directly to carmakers and in the after market, is in talks with Daimler's India unit, joint venture between Ashok Leyland and Nissan, and TATA Motors to supply emission control parts.

Mr Mukherjee said the Indian government's focus on adaptation of stringent emission norms will help the company in the long run.
