Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA), the apex national body of Automobile Retail Industry in India, has revealed total vehicle retail sales breakup for July 2022. While total sales dipped 8 percent YoY, there was a growth in three wheeler (80 percent) and commercial vehicle (27 percent) sales while 2 wheeler (-11 percent), passenger vehicle (-5 percent) and tractor (-28 percent) sales dipped YoY.

Talking exclusively of tractor sales in the past month, this de-growth could be attributed to an erratic monsoon season. There was an inequitable distribution of rainfall with some states receiving surplus rainfall while there was less rain in some states. This also resulted in a decrease in Kharif sowing causing some concerns to farmers. The festive season from the latter half of August and sufficient rainfall now being experienced across most of the country could spruce up demand in this segment in the upcoming months
