Honda Cars India Ltd. (HCIL), leading manufacturer of passenger cars in India, despatched 6,055 units in domestic market and exported 918 units in the month of July’21. Commenting on the business situation, Mr. Rajesh Goel, Sr. Vice President and Director, Marketing & Sales, Honda Cars India Ltd said, “We achieved our production ramp-up from last week of July and have streamlined supplies in line with market activity. Barring few locations, dealer outlets were mostly operational last month, albeit with lesser capacity. The market sentiment has improved amidst prevailing lower COVID infection rate and we expect the upcoming festive period will help the industry to maintain this momentum. However, we will keep a closer watch on the challenges related to pandemic and rising cost of acquisition of cars due to price hike from this month.” The company had registered 5,383 units in domestic sales in the corresponding period last year amidst COVID led operational restrictions. The export numbers stood at 282 in July’20.
