J S Nayol, president of the All India Car Dealers Association, said the COVID-19 pandemic ravaged the business and the situation will take time to return to normal.
Mr J S Nayol, the President at the All India Car Dealers Association said' "People are facing financial hardships, so they are going for used cars instead of new ones. We have demanded the government to give relief from GST so that sales of new cars also picks up."
The Association also added that most of the vehicles that are being bought by citizens fall within the price bracket of Rs 1 lakh and Rs 8 lakh, and that there isn't much demand for above the Rs 10 lakh mark.
Thoughts About The Increase In The Number Of Vehicle Registrations In Delhi
This is great news for the Auto Industry and all the other economies that are associated with it. We think the number of vehicles registered will increase across the nation because most people are now aware of private and personal space. The pandemic has definitely changed the way people travel.
