The Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA) has raised alarms about supply disruptions in India's auto industry due to the ongoing US-Iran war. According to a recent survey, 53.2% of auto dealers reported facing some form of supply or dispatch challenges, with 17.1% experiencing significant delays of three weeks or more. The situation is particularly dire for commercial vehicles, as disruptions are linked to the availability of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and piped natural gas (PNG), which are essential for production and largely imported. The Indian government has prioritized LPG for households, further straining industrial supply. Despite these challenges, consumer purchasing behavior remains largely unaffected, though dealers are urging customers to expedite their vehicle purchases to avoid future shortages. The Nifty Auto index has seen a 13% decline since the conflict began on February 28, reflecting broader market concerns. FADA also highlighted worries about an overall economic slowdown, rising fuel prices, and ongoing supply chain issues that could dampen future demand.
