India recovers from car sales slowdown in next year
As per the recent study conducted by the research firm Deloitte, the slowing down car sales in the Indian market will bounce back again in year 2012, as the car loan interest rates and inflations in the country are expected to decrease in the next year.
In its report – Driving through BRIC markets, Lessons for the Indian market – Deloitte said that a number of poor microeconomic factors have affected the growth of the passenger vehicle segment in recent months including the likes of skyrocketing fuel prices, high auto loan interest rates and restrained growth of real disposable income.
Since the deregulation in year 2010, there has been a jump of 34 percent in the fuel prices in the Indian market. On the other hand, the interest rates on new car loan have surged to 13 -14 percent.
As per a report given by Mr. Kumar Kandaswami, "The current slowdown is not here to stay as the fundamentals of car sales growth namely urbanization and car density are still very attractive."
The report further elaborates, "Car sales have declined, and registering de-growth since July 2011, compared with the previous year and is not expected to recover unless the macroeconomic factors become attractive. In FY 2011-12, car sales are expected to grow by a meager 2-3 per cent against 30 per cent in 2010."
