Pakistan Autos: Normalized car sales impressive, overall mixed trend


  • ​​Pakistan Auto Industry sales posted a normalized growth of 14% YoY in 1HFY17 driven mainly by HCAR’s Civic and PSMC’s Bolan and Ravi (normalized growth of 47% YoY). Overall, the performance for 1HFY17 shows a mixed trend, where we believe growth contribution by Civic is temporary.
  • Improving farm economy driven by higher crop prices, better crop output (Cotton and Maize) and lower input costs coupled with lower retail price, are propelling demand for tractors. The performance of Pakistan Tractors has exceeded our expectations where MTL has maintained its position of strength over AGTL.
  • Truck sales posted a phenomenal growth of 51% YoY in 1HFY17, underpinned by thriving construction activity and anticipated uptick in trade activities as CPEC comes in play in the medium term.
