India's Organised Used-Car Market Expected to Grow 7-9% in FY27: Crisil Ratings
India's organised used-car market is projected to grow 7-9% in fiscal year 2027, driven mainly by first-time buyers who make up nearly two-thirds of transactions. Crisil Ratings forecasts the market will exceed 7 million units, with organised players accounting for about 26% of sales. Rising new car prices and increased digital adoption are boosting demand and transparency. Despite GST changes narrowing price gaps, used vehicles remain significantly cheaper, with average car age decreasing to around four years due to faster model refreshes and shorter ownership cycles.
