Navigating Automotive & Mobility Sector in India

Adapting to the Shift in Emission Regulations

With India tightening its emission norms, about 50% of manufacturers face the challenge of higher costs for compliance, possibly impacting smaller players more severely.
Businesses should focus on innovating cleaner technology. Government incentives for electric vehicles and hybrids bear a CAGR of 35.5%, opportunity not to be missed.

Pressure from Import Dependence for Critical Components

India's automotive sector relies on imports for 30% of its key components, causing fragile supply chains very sensitive to global disruptions like 2020’s challenges.
Efforts should mobilize toward local manufacturing facilities. Government schemes like Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme can offer up to $1 billion in support.

Proliferation of Electric Mobility in Urban Areas

Indian government's aim to achieve 30% of vehicles as electric by 2030 opens substantial opportunities, especially with states offering tax breaks and subsidies.
Automakers able to move resources briskly towards EV manufacturing and sustainable batteries can capture significant market share, mirroring global EV adoption rates.

Rising Investments in Infrastructure and Smart Mobility

Infrastructure push with ₹10,200 crores directed towards urban smart city projects presents significant opportunity for automotive-to-mobility consultants.
Offering solutions involving ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) and charging stations infrastructure ensures firms stay competitive and on the innovation curve.
