A pile up of cars is sending a chilling message across Maruti, Hyundai et al.

Why! This car is automatic It’s systematic It’s hydromatic (Apologies John Travolta and Greased Lightnin’ but…) It’s just problematic! All spruced up and nowhere to go. That’s what cars are doing these days – those in dealer showrooms, to be precise. It is believed that car dealers are holding an inventory valued at around INR48,000 crore-INR54,000 crore, comprising 400,000-450,000 units across different car brands in the retail network.
