Rate Cut Boosts Auto Sentiment

The Reserve Bank of India鈥檚 recent decision to maintain its accommodative stance and signal a potential rate cut has been welcomed by the auto industry. According to the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), a rate reduction would significantly improve consumer sentiment, especially in interest-sensitive sectors like automobiles.

A cut in repo rates is expected to reduce the cost of vehicle loans, making both personal and commercial vehicles more affordable. This would especially benefit segments like two-wheelers and entry-level passenger cars, where financing plays a critical role in driving sales. Improved access to credit could also support recovery in rural markets, where demand remains fragile.

SIAM emphasised that a positive monetary policy environment will support overall industry revival and align with broader economic recovery efforts. The auto sector, having shown signs of recovery post-pandemic, is now looking for sustained momentum backed by supportive financial measures. With the RBI signalling flexibility in upcoming reviews, stakeholders in the auto space remain hopeful that a cut in interest rates may soon translate into higher vehicle registrations and increased production activity across categories.
