J&K auto retail sales rise 17.3% in July, festive demand expected to sustain momentum

Automobile retail sales in Jammu and Kashmir registered a robust 17.30 per cent year-on-year (YoY) growth in July 2026, driven by strong demand across passenger vehicles, two-wheelers, three-wheelers and commercial vehicles, according to the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA), J&K. Overall vehicle retail sales in the Union Territory stood at 21,124 units in July 2026, compared with 18,009 units during the corresponding month last year. However, retail sales declined by 4.03 per cent on a month-on-month (MoM) basis from 22,013 units sold in June 2026. Among vehicle categories, two-wheelers recorded sales of 12,354 units in July, registering a 13.23 per cent increase over 10,911 units sold in July 2025. Passenger vehicles posted a 22.55 per cent growth, with sales rising to 5,870 units from 4,790 units a year earlier. Three-wheeler sales surged 32.04 per cent to 1,599 units, compared to 1,211 units in July last year, while commercial vehicle sales increased by 25 per cent to 912 units from 724 units. The construction equipment segment recorded the highest growth among all categories, more than doubling to 48 units from 23 units in July 2025, reflecting a 108.70 per cent increase. The tractor segment was the only category to register a decline, with retail sales slipping 2.57 per cent to 341 units. Commenting on the performance, FADA J&K Chairperson Sanjay Aggarwal said the July figures reflected resilient consumer demand across most automobile segments despite the slight month-on-month decline. The 17.30 per cent year-on-year growth clearly indicates that consumer demand remains strong across most vehicle categories. Passenger vehicles, two-wheelers, three-wheelers and commercial vehicles have all posted healthy growth, which is encouraging for the automobile sector in Jammu and Kashmir, he said. Aggarwal, however, said the 4.03 per cent month-on-month decline warranted close monitoring. While monthly fluctuations are normal in the automobile industry, sustained demand and a stable business environment are essential to maintain the current growth momentum. The marginal decline in tractor sales also suggests that rural and agricultural demand needs to be watched carefully, he said. Looking ahead, Aggarwal expressed optimism that the upcoming festive and marriage seasons would provide fresh momentum to vehicle sales across the Union Territory. These periods traditionally witness higher consumer spending and increased demand for personal mobility, particularly in the passenger vehicle and two-wheeler segments. We expect the festive sentiment to translate into stronger retail sales in the coming months, he said. He added that the marriage season is another key demand driver, particularly for passenger vehicles and two-wheelers, while commercial vehicles and three-wheelers are also expected to benefit from increased business activity during the festive period. Aggarwal said automobile dealers across Jammu and Kashmir are preparing for higher customer footfall with attractive product offerings, financing schemes and festive promotions. He also noted that July 2026 marked a milestone for the automobile industry nationwide, with all six vehicle categories recording their best-ever July retail performance. National auto retail sales touched 25,91,138 units during the month, registering a 25.89 per cent year-on-year growth.

Kauvery Hospital Strengthens Emergency Cardiac Response at Chennai International Airport with Automated External Defibrillator Installation

Kauvery Hospital and Chennai International Airport jointly inaugurated the HeartSafe Initiative, with the installation of 13 Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) across the airport to strengthen its ability to respond swiftly to sudden cardiac emergencies. An AED is a portable, easy-to-use device that analyses the heart’s rhythm and, when necessary, delivers a controlled electric shock to restore a normal heartbeat.   Kauvery Hospital and Chennai Airport inaugurated the HeartSafe Initiative by commissioning 13 AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators) at the airport The initiative was inaugurated in the presence of Mr. Raja Kishore, Director, Chennai International Airport, and Dr Manivannan Selvaraj - Founder and Managing Director Kauvery Group of Hospitals, along with senior officials from the airport and Kauvery Hospital. Kauvery Hospital has been operating 24x7 emergency medical services at Chennai International Airport through four clinics strategically located at T1 Arrival, T2 Departure, T2 Security Hold Area (SHA), and T4 Arrival. The service is staffed by a dedicated team of 49 healthcare professionals, including emergency physicians, nurses, paramedics and support staff, who provide prompt medical assessment, stabilisation and emergency care to passengers, airport personnel, airline crew and visitors. The clinics are further supported by two fully equipped ambulances stationed at the airside and cityside, ensuring rapid emergency response and timely patient transfer when required. Each clinic manages approximately 80-100 patients a month, bringing the total to an estimated 320-400 patients across all four clinics. These include medical emergencies, onboard in-flight emergencies, walk-in consultations, and patients requiring stabilisation and transfer to higher centres. On average, 5-10 of these patients present with cardiac-related conditions, most commonly chest pain, palpitations and high blood pressure, underscoring the critical need for rapid cardiac response capabilities within the airport environment. The addition of AEDs further strengthens this comprehensive emergency care ecosystem, ensuring that life-saving intervention is available during the critical first few minutes of a sudden cardiac arrest.  Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Raja Kishore, Director, Chennai International Airport , said: “ Chennai International Airport is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for every passenger, visitor and employee. The installation of the Automated External Defibrillator is an important step towards strengthening our emergency medical preparedness. We appreciate Kauvery Hospital for its continued partnership through the 24x7 airport medical clinics and for extending its expertise to enhance our capability to respond swiftly during medical emergencies. Together, we are creating an airport ecosystem where timely intervention can help save lives .”  Speaking about the initiative, Dr. Manivannan Selvaraj, Founder and Managing Director, Kauvery Group of Hospitals , said, “ In a sudden cardiac arrest, every minute without treatment reduces the chance of survival. When high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is started immediately and an AED is used within the first few minutes, survival rates improve significantly. Through the HeartSafe Initiative, we have installed 13 AEDs to enable faster life-saving intervention.  However, emergency preparedness is about more than just installing AEDs. It requires the right people, the right training and the right systems. At Chennai International Airport, Kauvery Hospital’s 24x7 emergency clinics are staffed by experienced emergency physicians, skilled nurses and trained paramedics, supported by advanced medical equipment. The addition of AEDs further strengthens our emergency response capability, helping create a safer environment where passengers, visitors and airport personnel can be assured of rapid, life-saving care when every second matters .”  The installation of the AED reflects the shared commitment of Chennai International Airport and Kauvery Hospital to creating a safer environment for millions of passengers, employees and visitors who pass through the airport each year. Beyond providing immediate access to advanced emergency equipment, the initiative also underscores the importance of increasing public awareness about recognising cardiac arrest, performing CPR and using an AED until professional medical help arrives.
