This rampant increase in fuel price will make things worse in the automobile industry along with other industries of course that are already suffering due to the ongoing pandemic.
It becomes quite a huge task for the automakers to analyse and work on their long term projects accordingly because of the fluctuating fuel price. With the BS6 transition, many players have backed out with their diesel offerings. While some carmakers are continuing to offer diesel in BS6 guise. The consistent rise in fuel price will definitely affect the sales of cars and 2-wheelers.
