Mercedes Dealerships : 6 Crore (rented land)

wow, but i am sure the kind of money these guys make is not a joke as well, covering the cost in may be 4 yrs or so..

also if u happen to have BMW and Merc dealership then the cost doesnt become a sum right, it would be much lower?

thanks

Hey GTO, it's just the setup cost that you are talking about, but when you look at the investment point of view, a Honda dealership in Bombay would easily make a hole of at least 15 crores in your pocket.

And the Nissan dealer in Mumbai has spent lots on his dealership (he;s my dads good friend). He's also got a Toyota workshop that goes by the name of Lakozy.

What about working capital to stock cars and parts ?

Can Any One Help Me With What Would Be An Estimated Project Cost To Set Up A Honda Dealership?

Or If There Are Any Websites Which Would Give Some Idea?

Thanks Very Much

Someone once mentioned to me that a Maruti dealership in Whitefield area (Mahadevpura) cost the owner 3 crores to set up about 3-4 years ago. This is a full sales/service dealership.

Shivam, I'm on the look out for similar estimate and info as well.. But someone from the indstry told me that the smallest dealership/workshop set up would take atleast 25 crores, where the banks can shell out lets say 15c.. This includes stock of cars..

does anyone have more info on this people ?

when the rhino was just launched my uncle in patiala got a for to open a dealership(which he refused) and the price which was indicated was around a core pretty cheap when compared with above post

Depends on size of dealership and location.

There are many variables involved. Depends on how big the dealership is going to be and how many bays you want for servicing. Most important is the location. Cost is real estate is a big difference between Kholapur and South Mumbai.

Honda SIEL will give you a list of what kind of tools you need to buy and and they will even specify what color of paint to use.

my friend has opened a hyundai showroom and workshop total cost what he told me was atleast 15 cr for the land in the metro city 1.5 cr for building around 1 cr for equipments and another 15 cr for the stock they have to keep 45 days stock of all popular colors and varients they have target of 300 to 350 cars per month

How soon do you guys think these people recover the money which is invested?

Bah! Previous to this one I was not even aware that there are so many of us who are interested in a dealership/service point business. 3 is a really serious number of threads on a single subject. And Honda looks like a real favorite for service station business. I wonder why! ;)

Honda is the only company which doesnot give any discounts at dealer level or otherwise so wont it be the most profitable for the investor ;)
