September Auto Sales: Will OEMs overcome pre-festive slowdown?

Indian auto OEMs are gearing up to report their September sales volumes early next week. This time, September registrations will see an impact from the earlier festive season, as buyers usually tend to avoid purchasing heavy-ticket items during the inauspicious pre-festive period. Retails are likely to be hit in the inauspicious period – ‘Shradh Paksha’, during September 17–October 2, compared to versus September 29–October 14 last year.
