A Ford Motor India spokesperson said the company regularly assesses market conditions for its credit business and the decision to discontinue was conveyed to dealers in October - before it made any announcement on the Mahindra partnership.

"We are confident the auto financing sector in India can support Ford customer and dealer new financing needs. Our team continues to service our existing book of business," the spokesperson said, adding that 25%-30% of its dealers do business with Ford Credit.
