In carrying out my final project entitled "The Indian Automobile Industry – Recent Trends and The Road Ahead", I have received help, assistance and guidance from many sources. I take this opportunity to thank all those who took a keen interest in it and enabled the completion of these projects successfully. I would like to thank my Project Guide for providing me with the valuable inputs. Without his help, guidance and support this project wouldn’t have reached its logical conclusion. He was closely associated with my project work and gave me valuable support, without which I would not have been able to make this a success. I would like to thank the office staff and other people in the institute for their valuable support and co-operation. Last but not the least I would like to thank our Course co-coordinator and the Course Co- ordination staff for their support in every aspect. Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai 3 Welcome The automobile sector is a key player in the global and Indian economy. The global motor vehicle industry (four-wheelers) contributes 5 per cent directly to the total manufacturing employment, 12.9 per cent to the total manufacturing production value and 8.3 per cent to the total industrial investment. In addition, the auto industry is linked with several other sectors in the economy and hence its indirect contribution is much higher than this. All over the world it has been treated as a leading economic sector because of its extensive economic linkages. India’s manufacture of 14 million vehicles includes 2.3 passenger vehicles, 1.1 million commercial vehicles and 10.6 million 2 wheelers. The Indian auto Industry has grown at a 12% CAGR over the last 8 years. Passenger vehicles have grown the fastest at 17%, followed by CVs at 16%, 3W at 12% and 2W at 11%. The auto-components manufacturing sector is another key player in the Indian automotive industry. In India, the automobile industry provides direct employment to about 5 lakh persons. It contributes 4.7 per cent to India’s GDP and 19 per cent to India’s indirect tax revenue. Till early 1980s, there were very few players in the Indian auto sector, which was suffering from low volumes of production, obsolete and substandard technologies. With de-licensing in the 1980s and opening up of this sector to FDI in 1993, the sector has grown rapidly due to the entry of global players. Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai 4 A rapidly growing middle class, rising per capita incomes and relatively easier availability of finance have been driving the vehicle demand in India, which in turn, has prompted the government to invest at unprecedented levels in roads infrastructure. The Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) Annual Policy Statement documents an annual growth of 35 per cent in credit flow to vehicles industry in 2010. Given that passenger car penetration rate is just about 13 vehicles per thousand, which is among the lowest in the world, there is a huge potential demand for automobiles in the country. There are two distinct sets of players in the Indian auto industry: Automobile component manufacturers and the vehicle manufacturers, which are also referred to as Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). While the former set is engaged in manufacturing parts, components, bodies and chassis involved in automobile manufacturing, the latter is engaged in assembling of all these components into an automobile. The Indian automotive component manufacturing sector consists of 500 firms in the organised sector and around 31,000 enterprises in the unorganised sector. In the domestic market, the firms in this sector supply components to vehicle manufacturers, other component suppliers, state transport undertakings, defence establishments, railways and even replacement market. A variety of components are exported to OEMs abroad and after-markets worldwide. Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai 5 Background of the Industry Auto Industry - Volumes (FY11e) Auto Industry - Revenues (FY11e) 4% 37% 4% Passenger Vehicles Passenger Vehicles Commercial Vehicles Commercial Vehicles 36% Three Wheelers Three Wheelers 17% 75% Two Wheelers Two Wheelers 4% 22% The automobile manufacturing sector, which involves assembling the automobile components, comprises two-wheelers, three-wheelers, four-wheelers, passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), heavy trucks and buses/coaches. In India, mopeds, scooters and motorcycles constitute the two-wheeler industry, in the increasing order of market share. Driven by extremely deep forward and backward linkages with several key segments of the economy, the automobile industry provides direct and indirect employment to approximately 15 million people and contributing 17% to the country’s indirect tax kitty. More importantly, an uptick in the automobile sector has a very strong multiplier effect. It is estimated that every car, CV, 2-wheeler and 3-wheeler produced, generates direct and indirect employment of 5.3, 13.3, 0.5 and 3.9 units respectively, which translates into an additional employment of 25 million by 2016 Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai 6 This makes the automobile sector one of the key drivers for economic growth and leads us to believe that no government will deter the industry growth rate by way of an unfavorable tax regime as it has a direct bearing on the economy. In 2009-10, the Indian auto sector had produced over 10.6 million two wheelers and 2.4 million passenger cars and utility vehicles. India is a global major in the two-wheeler industry producing motorcycles, scooters and mopeds principally of engine capacities below 200 cc. It is the second largest producer of two-wheelers and 13th largest producer of passenger cars in the world. Tata figures among the ten largest global manufacturers of LCVs, heavy trucks, buses and coaches, while it is among the top 25 in passenger car manufacturing.

Visible in the chart below, passenger vehicle growth has a strong linkage to per capita income growth. Between FY03 – FY10, domestic passenger vehicle volume has grown by 16%, whereas, export volumes of passenger vehicles have grown by 30%. This is on account of India gaining acceptance as a credible and preferred outsourcing hub for several global auto makers.

Myriad demand and supply side issues continued to trouble the space, continuing the system-wide weakness that set in around the 2018 festive period. Broad- based decline in OEM volumes (Exhibit 1) throughout the year encapsulated the pain at that level as well as the knock-on impact on supporting Report ecosystems of ancillaries, on the one hand, and dealerships, on the other. Higher cost incidence and general reluctance in consumer spending affected the PV and 2-W segments most, while slowing economic activity and system pecial overcapacity took a toll on CV segment. OEM focus on inventory destocking S in the run up to BS-VI switchover from April 2020 and Covid-19 outbreak were other issues that adversely impacted Q4FY20, in particular. Total industry volumes fell 14.8% YoY to 2.63 crore – one of the worst performances in decades, with all major segments registering hefty declines- PV - Down 14.8% YoY to 34.53 lakh units, was dragged by 19.9% dip in passenger cars and 39% decline in vans.

Commenting on the release of the study, FADA President, Mr. Vinkesh Gulati said, “FADA’s Dealer Satisfaction Study 2021 was initiated to examine the health of the relationship between Auto Dealers and their OEMs. The survey was undertaken to reflect the prevailing issues faced by the Auto Retail Sector at large, thus making it the true Voice of the Dealers. OEMs need to be cognizant of the evolving dealer expectations. While issues of concern such as dealership viability, support on sales and after- sales, openness to dealer inputs in decision making and designing long term policies are fundamental needs, there are clear signs that dealers expect their respective OEMs to go beyond. For example, there is a need to have technology solutions and analytics to intelligently mine transaction data for business gains. Also, creating a digital platform to measure the effectiveness of marketing expenditure is reflective of a changing mindset.” FADA Secretary & Chairman DSS-21, Mr C S Vigneshwar said, “I am thrilled to say that FADA took more than 2,000 samples, the highest ever number which has been used for such a study in India.

  • Fuel Consumption from Light Commercial Vehicles in India, Fiscal Year 2018–19
    WORKING PAPER 2021-02 © 2021 INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL ON CLEAN TRANSPORTATION JANUARY 2021 Fuel consumption from light commercial vehicles in India, fiscal year 2018–19 Author: Ashok Deo Keywords: CO2 standards, fleet average fuel consumption, mini truck, pickup truck, greenhouse gas emissions Introduction This paper examines the fuel consumption of new light commercial vehicles (LCVs) sold in India in fiscal year (FY) 2018–19. These vehicles are the N1 segment in India, and passenger vehicles are the M1 category.1 LCVs in India are not yet subject to any carbon dioxide (CO2) emission standards, even though such standards apply to passenger cars and have proven effective in driving down test-cycle emission levels of new vehicles. This work establishes a baseline of fuel consumption for the N1 segment in India, to help regulators develop an effective CO2/fuel consumption standard. Additionally, we compare the N1 fleets for FY 2014–15, FY 2017–18, and FY 2018–19, understand the characteristics of the mini truck and pickup segments within the N1 category, and compare the performance of major LCV manufacturers in India in terms of fleet average fuel consumption. Finally, we assess the performance of India’s LCV fleet against the LCV fleet in the European Union, considering the differences in the curb weight and size of the vehicles, and examine the performance of LCV manufacturers if a star labeling standard or passenger car fuel consumption standards were to be applied. Background LCVs are used in India as “last-mile” connectivity to move goods to their final destination. The light-duty vehicle market was approximately 87% passenger cars and 13% LCVs in FY 2018 –19.2 This study focuses on India’s LCVs, which are bifurcated into two segments by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), as shown in www.theicct.org Table 1.
