EXPERT SPEAK (Auto): Good Diwali sales drive low single-digit growth for festive season

 

Mr. Nikunj Sanghi; Managing Director, J.S. Fourwheel Motor

Mr. Sanghi is the Managing Director of Rajasthan-based JS Fourwheel, which has been in the auto dealership business since 1985. JS Fourwheel is also partner of Mahindra & Mahindra (Auto) and Hero MotoCorp. Besides, Mr. Sanghi is the Director of International Affairs at Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA).

 We hosted a conference call with Mr. Nikunj Sanghi (MD, JS Fourwheel) to get an update on the Diwali season demand. Key highlights:

  • Overall festive sales for 2Ws and PVs are higher (Navratras to Diwali) in low single-digits than that witnessed in the same period last year. M&HCV is yet to see a pick-up in momentum.
  • Except MHCV, inventory correction has taken place across segments with inventory expected at below 30 days post the festive season.
  • PSU banks are quite aggressive on auto loans, offering cheaper rates than NBFCs and longer tenures (especially for 4Ws). Financing penetration has gone up by ~10pp, whereas LTV has increased to 80-85% (v/s 70-75%) on the on-road price.
