‘Two-wheeler segment worst-hit, to contract 1-4% in FY22’
The second wave of the pandemic, coupled with a multitude of headwinds, has played spoilsport for the domestic automotive industry, ICRA Ratings said in a report.
The sector was expected to post a recovery in the current fiscal after witnessing a challenging period in FY20 and FY21 on account of volumes slowing down and pandemic-induced challenges respectively.
“The trends, in fact, had been quite encouraging from the second half of FY21 onwards, with various automotive segments reporting healthy sequential recovery, post relaxation of lockdown-related restrictions,” ICRA said.
According to BACL, the biophilic-inspired business park will offer smart workspaces within a vibrant public realm. The project’s most exceptional and breathtaking attribute lies in the Urban Forest, a lush oasis in the centre of the development. This green space will serve as a focal point, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the area. The upcoming metro station in Airport City will provide seamless connectivity to the business park from the northern side, ensuring convenient accessibility.
