Impact of volume-value will disrupt margins of Maruti. Several companies large and small are going through unpredictable transitions due to the impact of COVID-19. With the present downturn in the car industry, Maruti Suzuki India could get support with a wide range of product and their existence in rural, semi-urban areas. Even so, growing substitutes in the higher-priced, luxury automotive industry, especially in the divisions of mid-size and service vehicles, that counteract such income-weighing gains. Therefore, it has had an impact of volume.

In the rapidly growing commercial vehicle segment which includes sports and multi-utilities vehicles, Maruti has lost market share. The share of utility vehicles in a passenger vehicles segment grew from 34% in 19FY to 39% in the past fiscal year, but Maruti ‘s share fell from 38% to 33% during the same span, according to Investec Securities Research.

Analysts believe Maruti may loss further market share in the coming days with competition introducing innovative products and most of them getting positive reaction. “A sneak in the next launch of models suggests a further intensification of competition and may lead to a further decrease in the market share if Maruti is not to introduce goods,” analysts of Investec noted.

Despite utility vehicles now forming a significant part of the automotive space. And growing competition, analysts wonder that Maruti would continue to be able to surpass. Furthermore, the commercial vehicle industry. “Due to the decline in other 50% consumer segments (utility vehicles and others). Maruti production is unlikely to surpass the market. However, we assume that increasing share of the A-segment or entry (level) hatchbacks would result in sales growth. Which would be following its medium-term volume growth direction”. Analysts at Antique Stock Broking added.

Mitul Shah, Research Vice-President, Reliance Securities, believes that this year’s model mix is possibly not inferior for many automobile firms , especially as people adopt low-end and mid-priced fashion patterns that may also decline per-car place efficiency. Shah questions, however, that Maruti would lose all passenger car share.

We are counting on Maruti to attain max foundation share. In the mid-sized and service automotive markets, competitors are significantly stronger, whether in model offerings or launch pace. And besides individuals are moving to reduce the number of completed cars in this pandemic scenario where Maruti & Hyundai differ, “Shah says. In the coming months there will be increased readability.
