https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/india...ml#post4849261 (The Skoda Karoq, now launched at Rs 24.99 lakhs) So it looks like this 2500 per year quota was distributed across 2 Financial Years FY 19-20 quota had 1500 T Roc's, 800 Allspace's and 200 Octavia vRS's. This information, the OP on that post says is from Steffen Knapp's interview. So, Karoqs must have been imported under the FY 20-21 quota. --Kalyan | |

![]() ![]() Altroz seems to show good potential with good numbers in Sept 2020, even though it lacks a strong (Turbo-)Petrol and automatic variants now. @Mods: This is my first post and i want to quote only one line regarding "erstwhile Maruti Diesels" from the original post. Could not find info in FAQ for this, Hope i am doing right. Last edited by Rudra Sen : 8th October 2020 at 07:44. Reason: quote fixed | |

| ![]() Very interesting sales thread. Good to see a strong bounce back in the auto market. While everyone focused on the headline YOY growth number VS September 2019, we should remember that Sep 2019 was a terrible month - with most players reducing dealer inventories ahead of the BS6 transition. October 2019 however was a surprise - where festival sales led to dealer inventories falling faster than anticipated, and better dispatches. The fact that Sep 2020 is better than October 19 is the more relevant metric in my view - it shows the confidence manufacturers have in restocking inventory ahead of anticipated festive season sales. I do hope this confidence is borne out and retail sales follow suit. Fantastic numbers from Tata Motors. Kia has done well too, as had the Creta. The one number that surprised me was the very low sales of the Santro - I thought it would get closer to the 10,000 level. As for Maruti, what can one say. Diss them as much as you like for making unsafe tin cans (true), but they have the pulse of the Indian customer. 148,000 units without diesels in their quiver is incredible. Hats off. |

This is exactly on the lines of what Vivek Kaul had quoted. Put out a brilliant article last week debunking a lot of euphoria. Quoting something which stood out for me: Quote:

On the other hand, the industry has resorted to aggressive marketing techniques and is trying the best to lure customers by creating artificial demand(waiting periods). I for one feel that there would be a downpour of discounts available in December while the cars would be degenerating at the yards all along.

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() This statement emanating from the ICRA says that the pandemic has rolled the clock back for our automobile industry by ten years. The situation is gloomy according to the report. ICRA was established in 1991, is headquartered in Gurgaon and was originally named Investment Information and Credit Rating Agency of India Limited (IICRA India). It is affiliated to Moody's Investor's Services. This report says:- Quote:
https://auto.economictimes.indiatime...-icra/78663272 September 2020 brought in cheers though for the automobile industry, but the overall contraction for FY 20-21 would be in the region of 21%. But even two years before the pandemic struck, headwinds had hit the industry, plagued and crippled by the low demand. There are no very tangible and result oriented steps being taken by the policy makers despite the negative indicators, to save the world's fourth largest automobile industry. The steps being announced at present will emerge as dampeners sooner or later and are all results of very bad planning, foresight and shallow understanding at the top level. Among the two supposed booster doses announced are:- -They feel the new scrappage policy will make India emerge as the #1 automobile maker. It is destined to be a cropper as the GST discounts have been rejected in toto and the burden is now on manufacturers and dealers to give rebates for scrapped cars. This relates to the new scrappage policy and is news from about a week ago, though the policy is yet to be notified. -Next, the financial stimulus package for government employees in lieu of LTC announced a few days ago is another hare-brained decision. They expect someone to forego LTC fares worth Rs 100,000 and spend three times the amount to buy white goods (>12%GST) incl a car. Unless some employee has already decided to replace a car during 2020-21 or buy a new one, is he off his head to spend that amount just to prop up the automobile industry as its saviour? The government should become more pragmatic and think of 'out of the box' measures by announcing more dynamic steps like:- -Offer GST rebates to swap scrapped cars. -Offer income tax rebates to all new automobile buyers to the extent of even 10-20% of the cost. -Very aggressively incentivise exports by automakers and offer tax holidays on their earned revenue in foreign exchange. -The three year compulsory insurance for new automobiles vide a Supreme Court order could be given a holiday for a few years till the auto industry recovers. This will decrease the ex-showroom prices. They can either approach the Supreme Court again for such an amended order, calling for relaxation of this norm for the present or as is the trend, go for a Presidential promulagation to this effect. As the automobile industry is a huge employment generator, revenue earner and a good contributor to the GDP these matters need to be dealt with, in all seriousness.
