FADA Appeals To All OEM's For Complete Shift to BS-6 Dispatches To Dealers

The Hon’ble Supreme Court recently heard the application of Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA) with respect to granting extension for sale and registration of BS-IV vehicles beyond March’20. 

Commenting on the order FADA President Shri Ashish Kale said "Hearing FADA’s plea, the Hon’ble SC did not consider our appeal for extension of sale deadline for Stock vehicles and reconfirmed on their Oct’18 order of 31st Mar’20 as the deadline for sale and registration of BS-4 vehicles. Considering the long downturn which has lasted well over a year now and the current Dynamic demand situation, selling 100% of the BS-4 vehicles Currently in stock with our Members by 31st of March is a tough task. FADA hence appeals to all OEMs to Shift Completely to BS-6 vehicles for all Wholesale Despatches to Dealers and stop further billing of BS-4 vehicles with immediate effect to Dealers thereby helping liquidation of Current BS-4 Inventory for a Smoother Transition to BS-6.”

In an internal message circulated to dealers, FADA President also advised dealers to plan liquidation of BS4 inventory as per 31st March’20 deadline for sale and registration of BS-IV vehicles.
