I don't agree. come on man, Bentely and Rolls Royce are world class brands which are famous for their products in only one segment.have you seen a hatchback from Rolls Royce or Bentley? but you must have seen from a merc. so they will never have fear of anything because these brands are king in their teritory infact other brands stepping in their segment have to re-think thrice!!
But Mercedes is also becoming quite popular among many business class people! And Benz has a much established network in India than the other two companies!
Benz has taken a bold decision , will have to wait and watch the results!
