Commercial Vehicles/Construction Equipment:Saw a ten-fold increase in vehicle deployment between April and July. Out of the 60% asset deployment, load utilization was 50%.

Personal Cars: The Personal Car segment comprised customers whose cash flows are largely dependent on their businesses. There has been an improvement in the cash flow situation. Customers who have largely been in addressing downstream customers from essential goods, agri-based & FMCG sectors are showing positive trends visà- vis customers in sectors such as garments, gems & jewellery etc.

Commercial Cars: Taxi segment -includes app cab & tour operators - have seen low deployment.

Tractors segment: For Agri-based usage Bumper Rabi crop harvest and timely government Interventions enabled farmers to improve crop sale and cash flows during challenging times. 70% of the customers were able to make their payments on time. For Commercial usage, improvement is to be seen as Cash flow crunch persists due to deployment issues.
