The extortion in car market became hot

The inflammation of the car market has increased again at the same time as the last days of the year are approaching and the record prices in this market continue.
Khodrocar - in a situation where the car market has been stable for months and recession was the first word of the market, but in the end, due to the incomplete notification of a plan, the inflammation returned to the car market to witness the increase in prices along with the flight of the dollar again. 

In recent weeks, the proposed plan to sell 120,000 cars from the increased production of Iran Khodro and Saipa companies on the edge of the market was announced by the Deputy Minister of Industry as one of the methods of providing liquidity to pay the increasing demands of the parts manufacturers, and this news was enough to Along with the news of the removal of the Competition Council from the pricing cycle and handing it over to the support organization, a new shock will enter the market. At the same time, the news of possible wars and the increase in the prices in the dollar and gold market also affected the car market, so that the news of the 1.1 billion tomans price spread by word of mouth.

But this was not the end of the story and the continuation of the news of the supply of surplus cars by the car manufacturers at the marginal price of the market increased the prices. Therefore, the officials of the Ministry of Industry entered the field to control these conditions, so that Manouchehr Manteghi, the Deputy Minister of Industry of Automobiles, it is necessary for the implementation of this plan. considered two steps.

Manouchehr Manteghi, Deputy Minister of Transport of the Ministry of Industry, stated: Because the plan for selling on the edge of the market, in addition to providing liquidity, must reduce the market price, therefore, at each stage of sale, the percentage below the market price and the number of cars supplied should be determined. The plan to sell 120,000 cars is in the initial stages, and as a definitive plan with incomplete information, it led to market inflammation, and if both of the above conditions are not met, the plan cannot be implemented.

However, the prices in the market have increased and it is said that the car market has experienced an increase of 10 to 80 million tomans in the past week.

In this situation, these questions are raised in a situation where car manufacturers, according to themselves, are producing with huge losses and lack of parts, how can they supply 120,000 surplus cars in the last two months of the year, and if there is production capacity. Are they adhering to their commitments in the integrated sales system?

Undoubtedly, in a situation where the market is still facing a shortage of supply and purchases are made only through the integrated system, why should this amount of cars be sold freely and at reasonable prices? While it is possible to break this price difference between the factory and the market by supplying more in the integrated system.

Car market experts believe that with this method, not only the market price will not be close to the factory, but immediately with the increase in the official selling price, the price in the jump market and the car price difference will be maintained and the prices will increase sharply.

It seems that since the car market is still considered a monopoly, the decision to sell cars 5% lower than the market price is in conflict with the decision of the Competition Council, as according to the spokesperson of the Competition Council, in the matter of the decision to sell cars 5% below the price The market has not been approved by the Competition Council and still considers the car market as a monopoly, and the Competition Council oversees this market. Therefore, there is no conditional or unconditional price increase for the car manufacturer as an incentive in exchange for increasing car production in the instructions of the Competition Council.

It is important to pay attention to the fact that in such an unstable market, one should not increase prices by making such crude proposals, and it is necessary for car manufacturers and regulatory bodies to be aware that these solutions are not the right way to control the car market.
