Retail sales of vehicles in Jammu and Kashmir dropped 28.5% in October, with two‑wheelers and cars accounting for the steep decline, according to Kashmir Life.
Retail vehicle sales in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir recorded a sharp contraction in October, falling by 28.5 per cent compared with the previous month. The decline was highlighted in a report by Kashmir Life, which tracks regional automobile market trends.
Two‑wheelers and passenger cars were the primary contributors to the slump, each registering the steepest drops among vehicle categories. The data suggests that consumer demand for these segments weakened considerably during the month.
The figures underscore a broader slowdown in the local automotive sector, raising concerns among dealers and manufacturers about the pace of recovery after a period of robust growth earlier in the year.
