There are still plenty of bookings where dealers can clear their stock, ”Garg said. The company has not yet released vehicles from its Chennai plant. Garg said dealers have enough stock to clear pending bookings and a list of the plant if needed.

Our dealers are seeking permission from local authorities, so we want this to happen soon.” Garg said the company is ready with stock availability and online sales are up. HML unveiled its ‘EMI Assurance’ program on select car models purchased in May. The car covers the customer for up to one year from the date of sale.
