Previously, the Government of India held a 18.28% stake in the company, and 54.2% was held by Suzuki of Japan. However, in June 2003, the Government of India held an initial public offering of 25%.

  • A Fundamental Analysis of Indian Automobile Industry with Special Reference to Tata, Maruti & Mahindra & Mahindra
    International Journal of Marketing, Sales and Brand Management Volume 1 Issue 2 A Fundamental Analysis of Indian Automobile Industry with Special Reference to Tata, Maruti & Mahindra & Mahindra Mukund S Assistant Professor Department of M.B.A Marian International Institute of Management, Kuttikkanam, Kerala Corresponding Author’s email: [email protected] DOI: http://doi.org/ 10.5281/zenodo.3626835 Abstract The intrinsic value or the real value of any stock should be known to the investor prior to the initiation of investment in the particular company. Therefore fundamental analysis can be used to find out the intrinsic value. Fundamental analysis is based on certain factors including industry, competition, operational efficiency, dividend policy, capital structure, ratios etc. Those factors tend to change according to the industry and economy. Indian automobile industry had witnessed a growth rate of 8 % during 2019-20. The fuel prices have played an important role in the growth of automobile industry when it comes to price sensitive consumers in India. This study has attempted to analyze the fundamental components of three Indian made automobiles by using various financial and statistical techniques.

  • 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.

  • India Light Vehicle Sales Update
    August 2018 India Light Vehicle Sales Update Weak July Growth Due to High Base in 2017 India’s Light Vehicle (LV) wholesales inched up by a mere 1% year-on-year (YoY) to 339k units in July, over a high base in the same period a year ago. At the same time, the dispatch of vehicles to dealers was partially impacted by an eight-day truckers’ strike. The overall volume was dragged down in particular by Passenger Vehicles (PVs), which declined by 3% YoY to 274k units. It is important to point out that dealers had depleted their inventory in June 2017 to avoid paying higher taxes under the new Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime that became effective last July. This was then followed by restocking, which bolstered wholesales in July 2017. In contrast, demand for Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) with GVW of up to 6 tons surged by 23% YoY to 65k units in July of this year. The LCV segment is bouncing back from the negative impact of demonetization (from November 2016 to Q1 2017) and the GST implementation, while also benefiting from an improved rural economy. On a seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) basis, sales improved marginally to 4.20 mn units in July, compared to 4.19 mn units in June. While the July SAAR was lower than the record-high selling rates of 4.37 mn units in May and 4.27 mn in April, it was, nevertheless, still a very impressive performance for India, particularly since the SAAR has exceeded 4 mn units for four consecutive months.
