Growth Estimates of Automotive Industry in India

The cumulative foreign direct investment (FDI) inflow into the Indian automobile industry during the period April 2000 ? August 2014 was recorded at USD 10,119.68 million, as per data from the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP). Data from the industry body, Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), showed that 137,873 passenger cars were sold in July 2014 compared to 131,257 units during the corresponding month of 2013. Among the auto makers, Maruti Suzuki, Hyundai Motor India, and Honda Cars India emerged the top three gainers with sales growth of 15.45 per cent, 12 per cent, and 11 per cent, respectively. The three-wheeler segment posted a 24 per cent growth to 51,461 units on the back of increased demands from the urban market. Total sales across different vehicle segments grew 12 per cent year on year (YOY) to 1,586,123 units. Scooter sales have jumped by 29 per cent in the ongoing fiscal, and now form 27 per cent of the total two-wheeler market from just 8 per cent a decade back. The ever-rising demand for scooters, which has far outstripped supply, has prompted Honda to set up its first dedicated scooter plant in Ahmadabad. Tractor sales in the country are expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8?9 per cent in the next five years making India a high-potential market for many international brands.1
