Commenting on how Navratri’22 performed, FADA President, Manish Raj Singhania said, “For the first time, FADA is releasing Navratri Auto Retail figures. Overall retails increased by a massive 57% compared to Navratri’21. All categories also showed extremely high growth with 2W, 3W, CV, PV and Tractors increasing by 52.%, 115%, 48%, 70% and 58% respectively.

When compared to Navratri’19 (which was prior to covid), total retails increased by 16%. Here too, all categories showed positive momentum with 2W, 3W, CV, PV and Tractors growing by 4%, 31%, 37%, 59% and 90% respectively.

Navratri retails clearly shows that customers were back in showrooms with all guns blazing after a gap of 3 years. In fact, 2W category which was continuously showing weakness when compared to pre- covid months, also registered single digit growth.

We now hope that this trend continues till Deepawali, so that apart from PV Dealers who will see a decade high during this festive, the 2W Dealers also have a good season and hence helps them liquidate their stock which they have built in anticipation of a good festive.”
