Car delivery in pakistan is always a big issue as it never be on time. some times it tooks several extra months to deliver car.
A screenshot of Honda Atlas’s booking confirmation SMS sent to one of its customers was posted on social media earlier today, according to which Honda Atlas will deliver the new City to its customer in March 2022, which is almost nine months from the date of the booking in July 2021.
Extended delivery periods also breed the menace of ‘own money’ in the automotive market. After the enactment of the 2021-22 financial budget and the new auto policy, the government had announced the following measures to curb the ‘own-money culture’:
- Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 200,000 tax if the first registration is not in the name of the person who booked the vehicle.
- Compulsory payment of KIBOR+3% mark up by manufacturers on delivery beyond 60 days.
- Maximum upfront payment on booking that is not to exceed 20 percent of the invoice value at the time of booking.
- The sharing of real-time trackable online booking and assembling status with the customers has been made compulsory for all carmakers.
