Higher sales of electric vehicles (EVs) supported by the Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme 2024 (albeit only through July 2024 but likely to be extended), the expectation of interest rate reductions in the second half of FY25, the high demand for the new models launched, the recovery of exports from their low base of FY24, and a favorable monsoon that is likely to boost rural consumer confidence and income levels are all expected to fuel growth in FY25.
While FY24 growth in Two wheeler sales was also fulled by by combined factors like traction in EV volumes, wider range of models and new launches. However, the key missing links that restricted growth were on account of subdued demand in first half of FY24 , that analysts at CareEdge Ratings attribute to increase in vehicle prices post the implementation of the phase-II of the BS-VI emission norms, higher interest rates and stressed rural incomes.
Nevertheless, the sales revived in second half of FY24 on the back of festive season demand and uptick in rural sentiments. Sales grew at a robust double-digit pace in each of the two quarters ended March 2024 quarter (y-o-y basis). This double-digit volume growth on a y-o-y basis continued during the months of April and May 2024 as well and is expected to support growth in FY25 too.
