The auto industry has been facing strong headwinds amid a slowing economy due to multiple factors -- liquidity crisis, high fuel prices, changes in axle load norms and BS-VI transition -- all leading to weak consumer sentiments and subdued demand across segments.
Disruption in the supply chain induced by the pandemic and the nationwide lockdown in mid-March 2020 have added to the problems.
