Heat wave takes toll on truck rentals and fleet occupancy levels in May: Report

The bulletin compiles sales and rental figures for May 2024 and compares them to relevant figures from relevant periods to provide a complete picture.

The intense summer heat exerted its influence on fleet occupancy rates, which dropped to almost 60% as loaders and drivers decided to avoid working during the day in different parts of India. High summer temperatures, along with fewer public infrastructure projects, caused a drop in truck rental rates along the major routes.

A significant down turn in rental rates was observed in the routes spanning Delhi-Kolkata-Delhi, Delhi-Chennai-Delhi and Mumbai- Kolkata-Mumbai. But as India gets ready for what is expected to be an ample monsoon season, tractor sales significantly increased in May.

Sales of agricultural tractors increased by a significant 24% in May 2024, indicating strong demand attributable to pre-monsoon buying. Meanwhile, sales of commercial tractors increased by 20% in the same time frame, exhibiting strong month-over-month growth.
