Dear Sirs,
I was an employee of AEI(India)Ltd at Chennai from 1947 to 1968 till GEC took over AEI purely on political grounds. As the head of the Sales Division and a senior Sales Engineer, I can tell u that AEI never went down in sales inspite of our BTH, Metrovick brand merged as AEI brand & in fact, early 1968 (before merger) AEI had plans to enlarge into manufacture at more cities of India & actually, we at Chennai were trying to get into manufacturing lighting fittings at Chennai & had almost found a suitable place when the merger happened!unfortunately too! It was indeed a great blunder on the part of UK govt to sanction this merger, the tragic outcome of which was that both AEI & GEC disappeared finally.
