March 2023 marked a significant milestone in India’s car financing landscape, with the highest loan disbursement recorded in a single month. According to CFSPL, Customers enthusiastically availed loans amounting to an impressive INR 150 plus crore during this period, indicating a substantial surge in car financing. This trend aligns with previous years’ data, where March consistently witnesses the highest number of cars being financed, showcasing a recurring pattern.
The remarkable increase in loan uptake during March can be attributed to various factors. Firstly, there is a growing desire among individuals to own personal vehicles, driven by the need for convenience, mobility, and independence. This aspiration fuels the demand for car financing as customers seek financial assistance to fulfil their dreams of car ownership. Additionally, March serves as an opportune time for car purchases due to several favourable factors. The commencement of the new financial year in India prompts individuals to make significant investments, including acquiring cars. Moreover, end-of-season discounts and promotional offers provided by car dealerships incentivize customers to finalise their purchases during this period. Furthermore, the utilisation of yearly bonuses or savings further contributes to the surge in car financing, as individuals leverage their financial resources to acquire vehicles. The notable increase in loan disbursement during March not only signifies the growing popularity of car financing but also highlights the importance of timing and market dynamics in the car purchasing process. As individuals strive to achieve their aspirations of car ownership, the availability of attractive financing options during this period plays a pivotal role in driving the remarkable surge in loan uptake.
