Reports from Confederation On Indian Industry says that there are signs of decline in the market . REASON FOR DOWNFALL Increase in interest rates of loans. First sign of downfall : car sales growth fell to 11% in april & may , as opposed to 20.7% in previous year . Reason being most Indians purchase cars by taking loans , hence high interest rate will lead to less sales. Rise in EMI. Gradual decline in capital goods. OTHER FACTORS FOR DOWNFALL Other problems could be the rise in global commodity pri ces . Steel price is rising , hence price for cars will also go high . As loans are already up , majority will keep distance from the market . PAMPERED INDIAN ECONOMY Till now Indian consumers had been protected from the rise in oil prices but this cushion may not last for long as we can see the hike in petroleum price as well as commodit y price in current economy . These problems could slow down things further . Also both revenue and profit are high. POSSIBLE SOLUTION FOR THE PROBLEM India is a growing economy with immense capability. Higher incomes and better life style. Ever increasing demand. Middle class and rural market developing as ultimate gro wth factors.
