Good news has come for the country’s economy facing the lockdown. Sales of Maruti Suzuki, the country’s largest car company, is almost normal, which is a big sign of rapid recovery in the economy. Maruti Suzuki has sold a total of 108064 vehicles during July, compared to 109264 vehicles sold in July last year.
According to information provided by Maruti Suzuki, the sales of mini segment cars have increased by more than 49 percent during July. Maruti’s mini segment comes with Alto and Espresso models and during July, the segment sold 17258 vehicles as compared to 11577 vehicles sold last year. However, it is also worth noting that the espresso model was not launched in July last year and it was launched in September. But still sales of mini segment have increased. Apart from the mini segment, the sales of vehicles in utility segment have also increased by more than 26 percent.
During July, sales in Maruti’s Kompex segment decreased by 10 percent, with the segment featuring the Wagon R, Swift, Celerio, Baleno, Ignis, Dzire and Tour S models. Apart from this, there is also a sale in the mid-size segment, the Ciaz model comes in the midsize segment.
To know how the situation of the country’s economy is, the auto sector sales figures are considered to be based on some extent, because Maruti is the largest car company in the country and sells the most cars, in such a situation, Maruti’s sales figures in the economy are showing signs of rapid improvement.
The most encouraging figures in Maruti’s vehicle sales figures during July are the sales figures of its light commercial vehicle Super Carry. During July, Super Carry sales grew by around 29 percent and the company sold 2232 vehicles.
If you look at the sales of Maruti Suzuki during the last 7 months i.e. January to July, the figures are like this. There was a recovery in sales of the company during January, although in February, sales have fallen slightly compared to January. But the lockdown was implemented in the last week of March, after which the sale was reduced in March and in April there was a lockdown for the whole month due to which the company could not sell a single vehicle in the domestic market during April, although a little bit of export was done. But in May, the government made some concessions, after which the company sold a few vehicles in May, the sales of cars were back on track in June, and now Maruti has moved towards normalcy during July.
