Key Differences Between India & GCC Automobile Market: Must Know For Marketing & Sales
Over the past few years, the automobile sector has been stuck in a quagmire, with floundering sales as a result of slowing economy.
The onset of the Covid-19 pandemic could result in vehicle sales plunging further and the recovery path will be slow.
Even as automakers try to tide over the crisis with virtual showrooms and contactless deliveries, there seems to be a growing concern with Economic factors impacting the automotive Industry as a whole across the World.
In the wake of the slowdown, the auto industry has been requesting the government for support through a viable tax structure in India, taxes for vehicles go as high as 28 percent. Then there are additional levies, mostly charged as a compensation cess that range between one percent and 22 percent, based on a car’s fuel type, length or engine size. A buyer will also have to pay road tax depending on the state of domicile, which could go up to almost 20 percent.
Managing Perceptions
“I don’t care what others think about me, I just want to get on with doing a good job only”, well good job and hard work surely matters and there is nothing wrong to have such attitude, but such attitude may not be enough for achieving the desired career goals. Personal branding has a key role to play in the development and advancing of one’s career. Creating yourself as a brand at work can often be the deciding factor for a successful career.

Business partnering can actually be cheaper and more flexible than a merger or acquisition.
“Strategic Business Partnering”, here is in context to an organisation which have manufacturing facilities but still enters into an alliance with another manufacturer for mutually beneficial goals, viz, capacity utilisation for one and for the other catering to the market demands without additional infrastructural fixed investments.Here we are not discussing of relationships viz, of a manufacturing company with trade, financial institutions or a venture capitalist.
Organisational Coma
There is a phrase in Buddhism, “kill the Buddha”, it means that the ideas you have learned to bring you to this point of clarity need to be let go of, if you are to go further and step into your power.
But, why exactly would we want to let go or unlearn?
Does what we already know prevents us from knowing more?
Right from our childhood we are programmed to answer every day at home or school,
What did you learn today?
