Today, the BSE Auto witnessed a decline of 1.19%. As the festive season approaches, the auto sector anticipates a significant uptick in demand, as consumers often prefer to take delivery of their vehicles during special occasions.
India’s automotive industry is on the cusp of significant growth, driven by several key factors that promise a robust future. One of the primary drivers of this growth is the rising income levels among the middle class, coupled with a substantial youth population, which is expected to fuel strong demand in the market.
Additionally, the global electric vehicle (EV) market has been gaining traction, with an estimated worth of approximately USD 250 billion in 2021.
The Indian government’s proactive approach doesn’t stop there. They also anticipate the automobile sector attracting substantial investments, both domestic and foreign, ranging from USD 8-10 billion by the year 2023. This influx of capital is expected to bolster the industry’s infrastructure, innovation, and overall competitiveness.
The month of October kicked off with noteworthy updates in the auto sector.
