In a notable recovery, the Shriram Mobility Bulletin indicates a surge in India's mobility sector during October. The rebound was driven by festive consumption, rural freight activity, and an increase in electric vehicle adoption.
Vehicle sales experienced significant growth, with categories like goods carriers and two-wheelers showing strong month-on-month and year-on-year increases. Despite some moderation in intercity freight movement, rental prices firmed up on major trunk routes.
