  Automobile industry which was reeling under pressure in 2019 has been deeply impacted by COVID-19. Vehicle production was down by 17% in FY 2019-20 and COVID-19 impact is projected to push back the auto industry to 2008 - 2010 levels. Rural is expected to lead the demand recovery driven by better MSPs for the upcoming kharif harvest, increased MNREGA spends in allied business activities and as most of the COVID-19 impact till date has been largely in urban areas. Hence tractors and two wheelers are expected lead the demand recovery. PV segment is deeply impacted considering the discretionary nature of consumption and recovery will largely be expected to benefit from shift in preference towards personal over public mobility. CV segment which experienced the maximum contraction in 2019 is expected to be under significant pressure driven by fall in industrial activity. This segment will benefit if government introduces the scrappage policy. Thus FY 2020-21 is expected to be one of most challenging years for the industry.
