A large number of claims were for two- and four-wheelers and some commercial vehicles, he said.

Meanwhile, various industrial associtions complained that several banks and insurance agencies are not properly extending their support to the micro, small and medium level companies to revive their business from the disaster. They alleged that many of the surveyors do not understand the technical requirements and while the critical machines are completely damaged, the claims are settled only by calculating the depreciation, which is affecting the revival plans. They also alleged that the number of claims settled are high considering the priority was on settling smaller claims such as that of two- and four-wheelers while the larger claims from the industry are still pending.

A group of micro and small units have formed a consortium and are planning to conduct a massive protest in Chennai. The micro, small and medium entrepreneurs are asking support including waiver or moratorium for various taxes, moratorium for various loans and financial support from banks, apart from addressing issues with electricity board and other government authorities related to settling the bills Commodity Market Astrology Tips
