Indian auto industry sees its biggest-ever August sales at over 24.23 lakh units, up 17.51 pc
New Delhi, Sep 7 (IANS) The Indian auto retail industry saw its biggest-ever August sales at 24,23,201 units, up 17.51 per cent year-on-year, as two-wheelers, passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, tractors and three-wheelers each set fresh August records, the data released by the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA) showed on Monday. Growth was led by wheeled construction equipment at 31.45 per cent, two-wheelers at 19.69 per cent, passenger vehicles at 16.14 per cent and commercial vehicles at 14.45 per cent, while three-wheelers grew 8.64 per cent and tractors were effectively flat at +0.84 per cent last month. However, retail sales eased 6.48 per cent over a record July on the seasonal monsoon lull and a festival calendar that shifted Ganesh Chaturthi and the spillover of Onam-led buying into September, said FADA President Sai Giridhar. Two-wheeler retails stood at 17,14,610 units in August, up 19.69 per cent YoY the best-ever August and 2Ws first genuinely new August peak since 2018. Passenger vehicle retails were 4,02,398 units, up 16.14 per cent YoY the best-ever August and the first time PV has crossed the 4-lakh mark in an August though 3.40 per cent lower month-on-month. Commercial vehicle retails came in at 90,769 units, up 14.45 per cent YoY the best-ever August though 8.93 per cent on-month on the seasonal freight lull, the data showed. Moreover, three-wheelers came at 1,22,281 units (+8.64 per cent YoY) posted their best-ever August, with EV penetration at 65.30 per cent. For September, dealer sentiment stays constructive but has moderated from Julys peak. About 67.09 per cent of dealers expect growth, 27.35 per cent a flat market and 5.56 per cent de-growth (against 74.30 per cent who expected growth heading into August). Expectations rest on the festive season proper now beginning Ganesh Chaturthi, the Onam sales spillover and the onset of Navratri with 43.59 per cent of dealers reporting festive booking pipelines already building. Against this, dealers weigh a widening monsoon deficit affecting rural enquiries, and the fresh round of OEM price increases, effective September 1, said the FADA.

Ladakh gets Autonomous Hill Dev Councils in all 7 districts
Leh, Sep 03: In a major step towards decentralising governance and strengthening grassroots administration in the Union Territory, Ladakh Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena on Thursday approved the notification for the creation of Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Councils (LAHDCs) in all seven districts of the Union Territory. The landmark decision comes after the creation of five new districtsSham, Nubra, Zanskar, Drass and Changthangin April this year and the Centres subsequent decision on July 13 to extend the LAHDC system to all seven districts of Ladakh. Announcing the development, LG Saxena described it as a historic day for Ladakh and said the move would further empower local institutions and strengthen governance at the grassroots level. The notification paves the way for the establishment of LAHDCs in the newly created districts, in addition to the existing councils. With the formal notification now in place, the process for holding elections to the councils is expected to begin in due course, marking a significant expansion of the regions elected local governance framework. Saxena said the decision would help decentralise administration, provide greater autonomy to local bodies and ensure that development and governance decisions are more closely aligned with the aspirations and requirements of people at the grassroots. The Lieutenant Governor credited the proactive leadership and guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for the move, saying it would contribute towards empowering Ladakh and strengthening its institutional framework. This landmark move will decentralise and strengthen local governance, ensure true autonomy for our local bodies, and fulfil the long-standing aspirations of our people at the grassroots level, Saxena said. The creation of the five new districts earlier this year had significantly expanded Ladakhs administrative structure. The subsequent decision to extend LAHDCs to all seven districts is being viewed as an important step towards ensuring greater representation and participation of local communities in governance and development. Saxena expressed confidence that the new arrangement would enable the people of Ladakh to play a greater role in charting the regions development trajectory while promoting inclusive growth. He said the decision reaffirmed the collective resolve to build a stronger, developed and more empowered Ladakh and congratulated the people of the Union Territory on the occasion. The notification is expected to set the stage for the next phase of institutional development in Ladakh, with the election process for the councils to follow in accordance with the prescribed legal and administrative framework.
