Speaking on the auto sales performance for February 2016, Pravin Shah, president & chief executive (Automotive), M&M said, “At Mahindra we are happy to have achieved an overall growth of 16% during February 2016 on the back of strong performance by our range of passenger and commercial vehicles. The imposition of an Infrastructure Cess of 1% to 4% for passenger vehicles, as announced in the Union Budget, would increase prices of automotive products immediately. An increasing number of duties levied on automobiles is a cause of concern and we see the need for GST sooner than later. However we need to take it positively, in view of the strong emphasis laid on rural, agri and infrastructure plans for sound, sustainable and inclusive growth in the economy and to spur the much needed demand."
