“The sequential trajectory in auto sector sales is on a substantial decline in the face of the second Covid wave (no YoY analysis given the complete lockdown in May 2020). Since a large number of states in India had imposed fairly strict lockdowns to contain the threatening rise in infections and mortalities, auto dealerships were either closed or partially operated during the month,” said Mr. Suman Chowdhury, Chief Analytical Officer, Acuité Ratings & Research.
On Tuesday, June 1, shares of Tata Motors settled 0.19 per cent lower at Rs 318.10 per cent apiece on the BSE.
