                         The
                        Mobile Air Conditioning (MAC) sector comprises around
                        6000 enterprises, of which approximately every third
                        enterprise is in the unorganized sector. Since 2003,
                        most new units have been fitted with HFC-134a compressors.
                        But a large population of vehicles, approximately 2 million,
                        continues to depend on CFC-12. If no retrofit option
                        is available, this sector will still require a significant
                        amount of CFC-12 for servicing beyond 2010.
