Respected Sir, I visited website: - 6665

Respected Sir, I visited website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VIN . But I couldn't find out month of manufacture. For example. If Vehicle Identification Number/ Chassis Number of Indica Vista is: MAT6114319PE42660 then: MA - India T- Tata motors 611431 - Dont know 9- The Year 2009 P- Pune Plant of Tata E42660 - No idea. I would appreciate if anyone let me know how to identify the Month of Manufacture in the above Vehicle Identification Number. I am going to take delivery of my Vista Quadrajet Aura very soon. Sales Executive has assured me September piece. So it will surely help me to identify the month of manufacture. Thanks in advance.

Today I got my Chassis Number. I have found that any letter next to plant is of month. In the above example 9P'E' means the car is of P<> Pune plant & manufactured in E<> May, 9<> 2009. In my new Vista, it is 9PJ i.e of September, 2009.
