Report Description

The India Commercial Vehicle Market is expected to be driven in the forecast period due to several factors such as strong replacement demand, better financing options, healthy freight rates and improving profitability for fleet operators along with beneficial incentives from the government.

India Commercial Vehicle Market Scope

A commercial vehicle is a licensed vehicle used for the transportation of goods and fare-paying passengers. These vehicles are used in many industries such as mining, automobile, construction, logistics, healthcare, etc. Based on the area of application, these vehicles are divided into light-, medium- and heavy-commercial vehicles. Commercial vehicles with gross vehicle weight (GVW) of less than 7.5 tons are categorized as light commercial vehicles (LCV). All mini trucks, pickup trucks, and minivans fall under the light commercial vehicle (LCV) category. Commercial vehicles with GVW ranging from 7.5 tons to 16.2 tons are categorized as medium commercial vehicle (MCV). And lastly. Commercial vehicles with GWS greater than 16.2 tons are categorized under heavy commercial vehicles.

India Commercial Vehicle Market Overview

The performance of commercial vehicles sector is often considered as a barometer of an economy. Commercial vehicles’ application span over range of industries such as mining, automobiles, e-commerce etc., which contributes significantly to the GDP of the country.

The commercial vehicle market of India will continue to surge in the forecast period due to continuous push in the manufacturing industries and infrastructure development by the government. In addition, the market growth is also supported by the replacement demand, improvement in the macroeconomic environment and healthy traction in the underlying industries such as steel, cement, mining, food & beverages etc. Moreover, reasonable freight rates are also helping fleet operators in this sector.

India Commercial Vehicle Market Drivers

The Indian government is continuously backing the growth of manufacturing industries in India since the pandemic in order to revamp the economy. The commercial vehicles provide transportation of raw materials as well as distribution of final products to their designated destinations. Several industries like construction, logistics, mining, food & beverages, automotive, steel etc., are highly intertwined with commercial vehicles for transportation. Government initiatives such as Make in India is encouraging companies to develop and manufacture products in India and therefore creating more scope for commercial vehicles market.

Rapid urbanization is also one of the key reasons for the growth of commercial vehicle market in India because urbanization directly leads to the infrastructural development in the country. Moreover, the government is investing heavily in the infrastructural development of the country, especially in the road networks which are benefitting the commercial vehicle market by engaging these vehicles both in logistics and infrastructure development. In the Union Budget 2023-24, the highest budget allocation has been given to the urban sector in which the maximum percent is given to Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana -Urban (PMAY-U) and metro projects, these two areas are meant for the development of residential complexes, metro rail, transport planning, transportation in National Capital Region (NCR), etc. Hence, these activities are going to directly attract the usage of steel, cement etc., which again directly depends upon the usage of commercial vehicles.

The replacement demand is also leading the growth of the commercial vehicle market in India. The resumption of schools, offices, and intercity bus travel and tourism is leading to the rise in bus demand in the country. Also, this industry is cyclical in nature, and replacement cycle has not come in the last few years. Therefore, the current replacement cycle of commercial vehicles is resulting in the growth of this market.

India Commercial Vehicle Market Trends

As with other automotive markets, commercial vehicle market in India is also witnessing technological advancements. In India, the commercial vehicle market is plagued with incidences of miscommunication and delays. In order to tackle such incidents, technological developments are being made in newer trucks to track the live location of goods being sent to the desired locations. Moreover, in order to enhance the safety standards, features such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are also now equipped in trucks and buses. The OEMs are now installing sensors in trucks which help the drivers to check if they are causing any trouble to nearby vehicles.

Commercial vehicle companies are focusing more on product development as compared to the market expansion in India because companies are having good share of fleet in the market and are looking to improve their operations and reduce cost. The key development in the commercial vehicle area is of the electric trucks which has gained lot of popularity in recent years not only due to their environmentally friendly nature but because there is a huge potential in cost reduction associated with their usage. Logistics industry has been one of the key markets for commercial vehicles in India for years. And this industry has always incurred huge losses due to transportation costs. There are lot of issues such as inconsistencies in tracking and empty miles also known as non-revenue miles which refers to the mileage that is accumulated while driving an empty container. The logistics industry is now looking for adoption of electric trucks which will help them in tracking shipments and reduce expenses.

India Commercial Vehicle Market Challenges

Fuel is a major expense for commercial vehicles. Rising fuel prices have caused an increase in the operation cost of commercial vehicle operators, making it difficult for the companies to remain profitable. And India is highly competitive and price centric market, therefore, it is quite difficult to pass on the additional cost to consumers caused by the fluctuating cost of fuel prices.

Public bus transport, which accounts for major portion of bus market in the country is facing huge problem in its profitability due to which OEMs are reluctant to bid for the project because of the fear of their poor financial conditions. State Road Transport Undertakings (SRTUs) are in a state of complete disorder. Most of the SRTUs in the country are in losses. They have been continuously under-allocated from the annual budget, and this has resulted in poor transport infrastructure in the country. Nearly a quarter of all STRU buses are overaged or older than 8 years. And the older the buses, the poorer the fuel efficiency and hence adding more cost to it.

India Commercial Vehicle Market Recent Developments

This is providing enormous opportunities for OEMs and new market players to make their mark by bidding for various projects. These opportunities are also creating space for innovation and development in commercial vehicles sectors. Different kinds of projects require new ways of solving and alternate methods from traditional procedures, hence, creating scope of research and developments.
