However de growth was seen in commercial vehicle and passenger vehicles. The sales of passenger vehicles were most affected in the month of August 2024 showing a downfall of 27%.
Aggarwal said that, Festivals such as Ganesh Chaturthi, and Navratri are expected to uplift consumer sentiment, particularly in urban areas.
Favourable rainfall in some regions has improved agricultural prospects, which may boost rural sales post-monsoon. However Shraddh period, an inauspicious period for purchases is expected to pause PV sales in September. High inventory levels, aggressive discounting practices and weak market sentiment continue to pressure dealer profitability he added.
Aggarwal said that overall outlook is cautiously optimistic. While the festive season presents promising growth opportunities, the auto retail market faces several headwinds, particularly from weather-related uncertainties and high inventory levels. Strategic inventory management and targeted marketing efforts will be key to capitalizing on the festive period while navigating these challenges effectively. |
