We are expecting a reply from them by month-end, with detailed technical inputs from their HQ in Germany," Ambuj Sharma, Additional Secretary, Heavy Industries Ministry told PTI.
If proved of any wrongdoing in India, the world's largest car-maker may have to face criminal proceedings, fine and recall of vehicles, Sharma had said earlier.
