India's Auto Sales Supported by Festive Inventory Build-Up, Growth to Normalize
India's automobile sales are expected to receive short-term support from inventory build-up ahead of the festive season, according to JM Financial Institutional Securities.

Growth rates are anticipated to normalize following a high base period. The report also notes inflationary pressures from West Asia as a potential risk to the industry’s cost structure.
