The decline in two-wheeler sales in June 2023 was attributed to a number of factors, including:

  • Rising fuel prices
  • High interest rates
  • Economic slowdown
  • Reduction in FAME subsidy for electric two-wheelers

Despite the decline, the two-wheeler industry in India is still expected to grow in the coming years. The rising population, increasing urbanization, and growing disposable incomes are all expected to boost demand for two-wheelers in India

  • Royal Enfield (9,614 units)
  • TVS Motor Company (8,354 units)
  • Suzuki Motorcycle India (6,641 units)

The decline in two-wheeler exports from India in June 2023 was attributed to a number of factors, including:

  • The ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, which has disrupted global supply chains
  • Rising fuel prices in the global market
  • Economic slowdown in some key export markets

Despite the decline, the two-wheeler export industry in India is still expected to grow in the coming years as EV 2 wheeler sales is picking up pace. The rising demand for two-wheelers in the global market, coupled with the increasing focus of Indian manufacturers on exports, are expected to boost two-wheeler exports from India will continue to grow.

The total car sales in India, including exports, in June 2023 was 3,28,909 units, a decline of 1.97% from May 2023 ,but an increase of 2.51% from June 2022.

The top five car manufacturers in India in terms of total sales (domestic + exports) in June 2023 were:

  • Maruti Suzuki (1,33,207 units)
  • Hyundai Motor India (50,001 units)
  • Tata Motors (47,235 units)
  • Mahindra & Mahindra (32,588 units)
  • Toyota India (19,608 units)

The decline in car sales in India, including exports, in June 2023 was attributed to a number of factors, including:

  • Rising fuel prices
  • High interest rates
  • Economic slowdown
  • Supply chain disruptions

Despite the decline, the car industry in India is still expected to grow in the coming years. The rising population, increasing urbanization, and growing disposable incomes are all expected to boost demand for cars in India in the coming years.Maybe the sales increase may come more and more from EV cars.

The development of EV ecosystem with Ola Electric, Ather Energy ,TVS,Bajaj,Hero etc. in 2 wheelers and Tata Motors,Mahindra & Mahindra ,MG etc. Cars will pave the way for EV sales to grow at a faster clip.

Muted growth in 2 wheeler and Car sales in the first quarter of FY 23-24 does not augur well for the Automobile industry unless the festival season that will start in Sep 23 should provide the momentum for the rest of the fiscal year.Fuel prices will also play a greater role in this which will determine the disposable income in the hands of the people and also the interest rate trajectory for Auto loans due to its impact on inflation.

State of the Indian Economy: Navigating Global Uncertainties

 The global economic landscape is rapidly evolving, with trade policy uncertainty emerging as the key driver of the near-term outlook. Recent US tariff announcements have stoked fears of a global trade war, with countries still working out their appropriate responses in this uncertain environment. Despite these external headwinds, the Indian economy has exhibited marked resilience. Although the weakening global economic outlook could impact overall growth through weaker external demand, India's domestic growth engines - consumption and investment - are relatively less susceptible to external pressures. Prospects for the farm sector have been boosted by the forecast of an above normal southwest monsoon for 2025, which could augment farm incomes and keep food prices under check. Headline inflation moderated to a 67-month low of 3.3% in March, mainly due to moderation in food prices.
