1/16

Introduction

The Indian automobile sector is one of its most vibrant industries. The industry accounts for 22 per cent of the country's

manufacturing gross domestic product (GDP). It comprises passenger cars, two-wheelers, three-wheelers and

commercial vehicles and is currently the seventh-largest in the world with an average annual production of 17.5 million

vehicles, of which 2.3 million are exported. The Indian auto market has the potential to dominate the global auto

industry, provided a conducive environment is created for potential innovators to come up with new pilot projects.

The next few years are projected to show solid but cautious growth due to improved affordability, rising incomes and

untapped markets. All these open up an opportunity for automobile manufactures in India. In addition, with the

government's backing and a special focus on exports of small cars, multi-utility vehicles (MUVs), two and three-wheelers

and auto components, the automotive sector's contribution to the GDP is expected to double, reaching a turnover of

US$ 145 billion in 2016, according to the Automotive Mission Plan (AMP) 2006-2016.

Market size

The automobile industry produced a total of 1,861,849 vehicles including passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles,

three-wheelers and two-wheelers in April 2014 as against 1,687,243 in April 2013, registering a growth of 10.35 percent

over the corresponding month of 2013. The growth is mostly attributed to the rise in two-wheeler production.

Two-wheeler sales registered growth of 11.67 percent in April 2014 over April 2013. Within this segment,scooters,

motorcycles and mopeds grew by 26.08 percent, 8.06 percent and 0.23 percent respectively.

In April 2014, passenger car sales stood at 1,786,899 units while utility vehicles sales stood at 525,942 units, as per data

from Society of Indian Mobile Manufacturers (SIAM). Export of utility vehicles showed an improvement of 298 percent

with 41,550 units.

Tractor sales in the country will 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 international brands such as Kubota, Case New Holland, AGCO, Same Deutz

Fahr and John Deere, according to JD Power Asia Pacific's maiden pilot study on the Indian tractor market.

The cumulative foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into the Indian automobile industry during the period April 2000 -

May 2014 was recorded at US$ 9,885.21 million, according to data published by Department of Industrial Policy and

Promotion (DIPP).

Investments

Some of the recent major investments in the automobile industry in India are as follows:

BMW Group has launched the third generation of its sports utility vehicle (SUV), the X5 xDrive30d, which will beRs 1 million (US$ 16,635.94) cheaper than the previous version, as the model will now be assembled at the

company's Chennai plant rather than being imported fully assembled.

Japan's Isuzu Motors aims to sell 50,000 pickup vehicles in India in the next few years to gain market leadership.

The company, which has a fully owned subsidiary in Chennai, has earmarked Rs 3,000 crore (US$ 499.07 million)

for a 120,000 units per year manufacturing facility.

Mercedez-Benz India has inaugurated South India's first AMG Performance Centre at Sundaram Motors in

Bengaluru and has also launched the ML 63 AMG for the Indian market. Mercedes-AMG aims to offer a more

personalised service to its customers and further bolster its powerful luxury SUV product portfolio in India.

VE Commercial Vehicle, a joint venture (JV) between Eicher Ltd and Volvo, is exploring the possibility of entering

the small commercial vehicle segment with a range of mini trucks. With this move, they plan to enter the market

with bigger rivalssuch as Tata Motors, Mahindra and Mahindra and Ashok Leyland.

Fiat plans to launch 12 models based on three platforms, double its workforce to 5,000 and increase capacity by

80 per cent at its Ranjangaon plant by 2018.

Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) has inaugurated a factory and a research centre for electric two-wheelers in Ann

Arbor, Michigan, US. With an initial capacity to produce 9,000 vehicles annually, the plant will assemble its first

electric two-wheeler later this year.

Government Initiatives

SIAM and the Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA) are two apex bodies appointed by the

Government of India to work for the development of the automobile industry in India.

India has a well-established Regulatory Framework under the Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport and Highways in

which SIAM plays an important role. Also, ACMA's active involvement in trade promotion, upgrade in technology, quality

enhancement and collection and dissemination of information has made the body a vital catalyst for the industry's

development.

The Indian government encourages foreign investment in the automobile sector and allows 100 per cent FDI under the

automatic route. It is a fully delicensed industry and free imports of automotive components are allowed. Moreover, the

government has not laid down any minimum investment criteria for the automobile industry and has formulated the

Automotive Mission Plan for the period 2006-2016 which aims to accelerate and sustain growth in this sector. The plan

also aims to double the contribution of the automotive sector to the country's GDP by taking its turnover to US$ 145

billion and providing additional employment to 25 million people by 2016.

Road Ahead

Faster economic growth coupled with the government's policies is likely to drive volumes and revive the Indian

automobile sector. A fall in interest rates and stable fuel prices are expected to create an environment conducive for

growth in this industry. Many foreign companies have alsostarted to show their presence in India leading to a very

competitive automobile market in the country, which augurs well for the sector's growth.

It has been predicted by IHS Automotive, a global market information provider that India will become the third largest

automotive market in the world by 2016 ahead of Japan, Germany and Brazil, riding on its domestic automotive sales.

NDIA SALES ANALYSIS: JUNE 2014

by Autocar Pro News Desk Jul 02, 2014

Things are finally looking up for the Indian automobile industry. Ten days before the much-awaited reveal of the Union

Budget 2014 and five days after the finance ministers market-lifting statement that excise duty cuts on vehicles across

segments have been extended to December 31, green shoots of recovery seem to be sprouting, particularly across the

troubled passenger car and commercial vehicle segments. Passenger car sales rose for the second month in a row as

buyer footfalls increased in showrooms.

What also helped carmakers was a flurry of handsome discounts, new car launches and worried consumers expecting

OEMs to hike prices from July 1. A good number of carmakers had, before the finance ministers announcement, said that

they were all set to hike prices. Renault India, however, has gone ahead and hiked prices by 1 percent on the Pulse, Scala

and Duster from July 1.

Most OEMs believe that things can only get better from now onwards, notwithstanding the Rs 1.60 per litre petrol price

hike and the 56 paise increase in diesel cost, effective from July 1, following the Iraq crisis. However, the threat of

drought-like conditions across the country and continuing inflation could see a stretched recovery period.

Maruti Suzuki India, the bellwether of the Indian automobile industry, has reported sales of 100,964 units in the

domestic market, up 31.1 percent year on year (June 2013: 77,002). For Q1 (April-June 2014), the carmaker has posted

sales of 270,643 units, up 10.3 percent (April-June 2013: 245,346).

InJune 2014, the companys quartet of entry level cars Maruti 800, Alto, A-star and Wagon R sold a total of 47,618

units, up 52.1 percent (June 2013: 31,314), while the premium compact cars Swift, Estilo, Ritz and Celerio sold 22,293

units, up 6.2 percent (June 2013: 20,996). The latter segment has notched the biggest growth of 21.2 percent over Q1,

selling a total of 72,346 units thanks to the upsurge of demand for the AMT-equipped Celerio hatchback.

governments decision to extend the excise duty concession is a welcome move and will certainly uplift consumer

purchasing sentiments as we head into the festive season over the next few months, said Vinay Piparsania, executive

director of marketing, sales and service at Ford India. It reflects the governments recognition of the importance of themanufacturing sector and its contribution to overall economic growth, he said.

15 target of 4.5 million units. This target will be helped by the upcoming Dream series variant (aimed at mass
