Sector hits:

With the constant changes in the market, the automobile manufacturers can expect a record inventory of 400,000 vehicles which is valued at ₹44,000 crore in May.
With car shipments to dealers surpassing demand, registrations of passenger vehicles, an indicator of retail sales, are projected to decline by 5% in May compared to the same period last year.
One of the reasons behind this scarcity in the demand of the cars is the increasing temperature due to heat waves coupled with election-related uncertainties.
Pre-Covid stocks for the industry used to be in the range of 45 days. This has dropped to 2-3 weeks after the pandemic. Industry stocks are high. Forecast for monsoons is good. Interest rates are expected to come down later in the year, with inflation under control. Given the high base for the entire year, sales growth is likely to be in low single digits,’ said Hardeep Singh Brar, national sales head at Kia India.
Myriad issues have resulted in this omen combining factors like lower economic growth, lower flow of financing for vehicles purchase, high energy costs and, in the international context, the continued shortage of components that directly impacts the production and inventory of vehicles at dealerships, both in local and international markets.
In 2022, sales of new cars in Spain fell to 73,927 units, partly due to problems transporting cars to dealers.
In 2022, the final sales figure remains at 813,396 units, 5.3% lower than 2021 and far from the forecast of 820,000 vehicles. In addition to all of this, we must bear in mind the persistent bottlenecks in the supply of vehicles, which has greatly conditioned the activity of dealers.
The high inventory levels can also bring in its wake discounts and special schemes in June. In fact, executives said they might rise by 15-20% in June compared to May.
