About the host city - Chennai:
Chennai (formerly known as Madras) is the capital of the state of Tamil Nadu and is India's fourth largest metropolitan city. It is located on the Coromandel Coast of the Bay of Bengal. With an estimated population of 6.90 million (2005), the 368-year-old city is the 31st largest metropolitan area in the world.

 Possessing the third largest economy (2004-2005) among states in India, Tamil Nadu is
also the second most industrialised state in India. It ranks third in FDI approvals - The State's investment constitutes 9.12% of the total FDI in the country Unlike many other states, the economic resources are quite spread out, rather than concentrated in a small industrialised area. Chennai has a diversified economic base covering sectors like Automobile, Light Engineering, Textile, Petrochemicals, Leather, Heavy Engineering, Defence, Space, Nuclear etc.

Chennai is the automobile capital of India, with around 40% of the major automobile giants such as Hyundai, Ford, Mitsubishi, TVS, Ashok Leyland, Caterpillar, Royal Enfield, TI Cycles have their manufacturing plants there (BMW soon to join) and producing 80% of the nation's vehicles.

The city is a major centre for the Auto Ancillary industry. The Heavy Vehicles Factory, Avadi produces military vehicles, including India's main battle tank Arjun. The Railway Coach building factory of the Indian Railways, the Integral Coach Factory manufactures railway coaches and locomotives. The prestigious nuclear power plants of the Dept of Atomic Energy and its research & development wing are located at Kalpakkam.

Chennai is also the hub of technical research and education. The state has more than 250 engineering and technical institutes. The country's prestigious technical university - Anna University, as well as the internationally reputed Indian Institute of Technology (IIT Madras), are located in the city.

Climate
Chennai lies on the thermal equator, and thus sees little variation in seasonal temperature. Its proximity to the sea gives it a hot and humid climate for most of the year. The highest temperature is obtained in late May and early June usually about 38 °C (100 °F), though it usually exceeds 40 °C (104 °F) for a few days most years. Average daily temperature in Chennai during January is around 24 °C (75 °F), though the temperature rarely falls below 18 °C (64 °F). The lowest temperature recorded is 15.8 °C (60.4 °F) and highest 44.1 °C (111.4 °F).
The average annual rainfall is about 1,300 mm (47.2 inches). The city gets most of its seasonal rainfall from the north-east monsoon winds, from late September to mid November. Cyclones in the Bay of Bengal sometimes hit the city.
