Car sales March 2020: MG Motor Bucks Lockdown with Sales Growth in February


MG Motor India sold a total of 1,518 units in March 2020, an increase of 10.32 percent compared to the February 2020 sales figures. These include 116 units of MG ZS EV and 1,402 units of MG Hector. In comparison, the company sold a total of 1,376 units for the ZS electric SUV in February 2020, with 158 units and MG Hector 1,218 units. But the point to note here is that the company was affected by the delay and stagnation in the supply of components thanks to the global spread of the coronavirus virus, which peaked in China in February. Just to keep things in mind, MG Motor India sold 3,130 units in January 2020. No doubt, if the company had not given any more numbers for the lockdown, then it would have been implemented across the country on 23 March to stop the spread of coronavirus. .

Commenting on the sales performance during the month, Rajiv Chaba, Chairman and Managing Director, MG Motor India, said, "Both MG Hector and MG ZS EV have made an impression in the Indian car market. Supply chain disruptions globally Despite, MG Motor continues to serve its customers. In February, our sales were impacted by the disruption, while the lockdown was announced before March. Improved Uran situation, resulting in the closure of our manufacturing plants. "

"Our current focus is on the health and well-being of our employees and their families, as well as society at large. In this quest, we have announced a INR 2 crore grant towards purchasing gloves, masks, medicines, ventilators, And Chaba said, "and are working closely with the local administration in Gurugram and Halol (Vadodara)." Despite the ongoing situation, the carmaker assured its employees Or that there would be no layoffs and suppliers and vendors will be completed on all payments.

Before the lockdown came into force, MG Motor India initiated a 'disinfect and salvage' program to ensure that every car was cleaned and had near-zero contact with customers. Even after the lockout is lifted, MG will formalize it as a permanent process.


Notes
MG Motor India does not own any stock of BS4 units at its manufacturing facility in Halol or at any of its dealerships across India. The company has started manufacturing BS6 units, but currently the BS6 inventory at the dealership is very low as the MG Gujarat plant remains closed due to lockdown.
