India's auto sales volume will take another 3-4 years to reach 2018 levels, an industry body executive said on Tuesday, as the coronavirus-induced lockdown hurt monthly revenue and increased pressure on a sector already reeling from poor demand.

The pandemic-related disruption to the supply chain comes at a time when India’s auto industry was already facing a slowdown in demand and government rules to adopt tougher emission standards forced carmakers to hike prices, driving customers away. The Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers , an industry body, said domestic car and SUV sales slumped 50% in June from last year, while sales of two wheelers - widely seen as an indicator of the health of the rural economy - fell 39%.

“Production has been slow to pick up due to supply chain disruption and weak demand,” said Rajan Wadhera, president, SIAM.
