In the year 2022, the Indian automobile industry generated its highest ever annual domestic passenger vehicle sales. A total of 3.79 million vehicle units were sold in India, which was about 23.1 percent higher than the unit sales recorded in 2021. The Indian passenger car market was valued at USD 35.27 billion in FY2022 and is expected to reach a value of USD 75.49 billion by FY2030 while registering a CAGR of over 10.16% during the forecast period. The increase in value of passenger vehicle sales is driven by several factors including higher aspirations among the younger generation customers who prefer to have their first vehicle purchase as sports utility vehicle (SUV) rather than the lower priced hatchback; higher disposable income with double income single kid family structure; more women participation in formal employment who prefer to have their own personal mobility and easy credit availability along with lower interest rate regime for past several years.   

Expansion of Auto Component Industry

Manufacturers of automobile components are widely spread across the nation. Due to rising domestic demand and exports, increase in investments in the automotive components market is taking place. The Indian automotive component market size is anticipated to expand significantly over the course of the forecast period. India is poised to overtake other competing countries as the primary location for manufacturing of automobile components. The national government budget also announced a 15% rise in customs duties on a select group of car components thus making their imports costlier. Indigenous development and procurement of car components in turn is helping passenger car manufacturers to keep their vehicle prices competitive.   

Increasing Investments in Electric and Autonomous Drive Cars

Due to the increasing emphasis on reducing pollution and rising fuel prices; it is projected that demand for electric vehicles, particularly electric cars will increase over the forecast period. Self-driving technology, reduced emissions & pollutants and constant improvement in safety are some of the factors that will drive the growth in passenger car market in future. Furthermore, automobile manufacturers are investing in the development of new technologies and expanding their production capabilities to meet the growing demand of electric vehicles in India.

Government Scheme

The government published a notification in the gazette announcing the PLI (Production-Linked Incentive) program for the car manufacturing industry. The PLI strategy aims to expand the nation's production capacity in the car, auto component and drone industries. The scheme provides financial incentives to enhance local manufacturing of cutting-edge automotive technology products in order to promote investment in the automotive value chain. The main goals are to provide financial assistance, achieve economies of scale, generate employment opportunities and establish a strong supply chain for components being used in modern automotive technology.

Impact of COVID-19 on India Passenger Car Market
