COVID-19 Impact on India Automotive Industry

The pandemic majorly impacted the automotive market in the country which is a vital part of the Asia Pacific automotive market. In the early stages of the pandemic, economic uncertainties and strict lockdown led to a sharp decline in automotive production and sales. With a number of restrictions on movement and economic slowdown, the demand for automobiles, particularly non-essential vehicles, plummeted and this resulted in inventory backlogs as well as financial strain on manufacturers and dealerships. In addition, disruptions in the global supply chain on the back of the lockdowns and restrictions in many nations hampered the production of automotive components, which led to delays in manufacturing processes. The automotive sector, which depends heavily on a complex network of suppliers, confronted challenges in sourcing critical parts.

Key Players of the Market

The implementation of BS-VI standards marked a key leap forward, substantially reducing vehicular emissions as well as aligning India with global environmental standards. In addition, the Government of India is actively promoting electric mobility via the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (FAME) scheme. This provides incentives for the adoption of electric as well as hybrid vehicles, which inspire the automotive industry to invest in and develop eco-friendly technologies. Safety standards have also been a key central concern, with initiatives such as the Bharat New Vehicle Safety Assessment Program (BNVSAP) aims to improve vehicle safety features and crashworthiness.
