The Indian Commercial Vehicle Industry will witness overall positive changes in the year 2018. MHCV segment has shown signs of recovery for testing situations since July 2017. The implementation of GST and restriction of overloading has tempted the Truck Industry to make a shift towards higher tonnage and technical advance products. With the implementation of new strategies and tax policies, more trucks are required to carry the similar load which has created the demand for the new vehicle for transport services. OEMs have already started to do the optimizing of their warehouses.

The 41T GVW truck which consists of 16 tires is the new category introduced in the rigid haulage segment. All other segments like a small commercial vehicle, light commercial vehicle and the medium heavy commercial vehicle will also see some changes due changing in market dynamics in the near future.

For a stable growth and steadiness in the market OEM presence and portfolio of the product play an important role in their growth. Other parameters and tactics which will have an impact are the network expansion and value proposition of the product which will have a medium and long-term impact on the market demand. E-commerce segment will also have a positive impact on truck growth with some changes in loading span and payload capacity.

There is a downward slide in the bus segment after the implementation of GST. Bus code and GST have had a negative impact on the bus industry, especially on an intercity application and higher tonnage bus segment. After the implementation of GST the local bus body price has been increased.

There is still ambiguity on the used vehicle tax structure under GST tax policy.

There is an expectation for an increase in vehicle price due to increase in commodity price and oil price. There is an optimization in the logistics sector and OEM warehouses, the number of depots has been drastically reduced and hub and Spoke model is more relevant after the GST implementation. This trend will make way for the need for more improvised and efficient trucks, better TCO, more productive trucks, need for the modernization of fleet.

The post Tata Motors Commercial Vehicle Production Forecast appeared first on Autobei Consulting Group.

Buyers are still waiting for clarity on GST that may bring down Vehicle prices to some extent. During FY 13 to FY 15, the CV industry was going thru difficult time due to slow demand by fleet owners, and weak replacement demand.Currently, issues like GST, emission norms, Bus code for safer and comfortable journey, Truck body code is also being considered by Govt., Mandatory Fitment of Speed Governors on Transport Vehicles to avoid over speeding, Model Automated Centers for checking the fitness of the vehicles, AC cabin and other regulations are impacting on Industry.Ministry of Road Transport & Highways also taken the initiative to offer an incentive to replace more than 11 years old vehicles.

In FY 2009, the Commercial Vehicle volume was 383 thousand units and it touched 727 thousand units in FY 17. If we check the market share of Tata Motors in FY 2009 to FY 2017, company lost around 18 percent market share. On the other hand, Ashok Leyland, Mahindra (Overall CV segment), Eicher, Force Motors gained market share.

There are several factors are responsible for continues losing the company’s grip on the market.Mahindra gained around 10 percent, Ashok Leyland 6 percent, Eicher 2.3 percent, Force Motors 1.3 percent market share during the same period.

M&HCV and LCV Segment Analysis:

European players are more interested in the Medium & Heavy segment due to favorable market dynamics and competitive position. Foreign OEMs are focusing not only just selling the vehicle but selling the complete solution along with Telematics, Digital Technology etc. Since FY 2014, the M&HCV segment is showing positive moments from FY 14 to FY 16. Due to unexpected market dynamics, this segment lost around 2% share.

LCV segment share decline from FY 2014 to FY 2016.There is a minor improvement in FY 2017.

 The Commercial Vehicle Industry outlook for FY 2018:

We expect that commercial vehicle to grow by 5 -6% in FY 18 due to normal  Monsoon and GST bill. The sales growth should be visible after July 2017 after implementation of GST. It could reduce vehicle price by 3 to 4 percent.

(In our detail report, we have covered all market dynamics and their impacts on each OEM and Commercial Vehicle segment (SCV, LCV.MCV, and HCV) along with percentage impact on Commercial Vehicle Industry.)

Tata Motors lost its market share in every segment of Commercial vehicle. Overall it lost around 18 percent market share in its CV segment.The LDT segment which contributes around 51 percent of sales lost 22 percent market share in FY 2017.

LCV segment is dominating by local players. European players like Daimler, MAN are not planning to enter into this segment due to price position of vehicles. The LCV product would be more expensive with European technology. It also requires good after-sales network in rural and semi-urban areas. Mahindra Maxximo vehicle equipped with electronics parts. This was the major reason that this vehicle struggling in the market.Vehicle architecture must match the market dynamics, Application and Customer expectations.

Newly launched vehicle JEETO performance is excellent in mileage and Payload capacity.

Mahindra had just 27.9 percent market share in FY 2009 and Tata Motors had around 60 percent market share in Light Commercial Vehicle Segment.

Promotion Strategy:

Tata Motors, recently started TV commercial with Akshay Kumar to promote its CV sales. Mahindra is also running TV commercial with Ajay Devgan for a long time but company registered only 17 percent growth in FY 17 compared to last year.

It is better to invest in product development, improvement and gain the confidence of the customers by giving world-class product. Ashok Leyland is a good example of this strategy. Company diverts the fund to invest in technology and also improved its balance sheet. We have not seen the exceptional impact of celebrities on Commercial vehicle business in any part of the world. Sometimes, it could only have a minor impact on branding.
