29% DROP IN COMMERCIAL VEHICLE SALES IN FY20 TO 717,688 UNITS FROM 1 MILLION IN FY19
INDIA’S COMMERCIAL VEHICLE (CV) segment was already battling falling sales when the Covid-19 pandemic made it worse. In 2019-20, according to industry body the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), CV sales dropped 29 per cent to 717,688 units—from its peak of 1 million in FY19—because retail financing took a major hit and there was a transition from BS-IV emission norms to stricter BS-VI norms. In FY21, after the pandemic hit, CV sales plunged 21 per cent to 568,559 units. During the first nine months of FY22, sales improved to 531,702, compared to 388,497 in the corresponding period in FY21.
