So the festival season has kicked off already and car dealerships are packed with buyers rushing in to book their favourite car. This is one of the most exciting times of the year when it comes to car sales. During this entire phase, not only buyers are enthusiastic about car purchase but also the manufacturers out there, who attempt a variety of sales gimmicks to apparently offer the best possible deal for you. Whilst it sounds tempting but you would be wondering whether this is the only perfect time to buy a new car? Definitely not. Typically the festive season in India begins from Navratri onwards, in the month of September / October and continues until New Year. Quite certainly, not only this is considered as an auspicious occasion to make a buy a new car but is also very celebrating too. On other hand, by December - sales eventually drop down since majority prefers to receive delivery of vehicle in New Year. Hence, sales staff attempt harder to push for selling off the car. This translates into better scope of bargain for you. The discounts could sometimes be as healthy as over one lakh rupees (Depending upon model).
Sales persons attempt so to clear up remaining stock in their inventory and to meet the certain sales target. Depending on bargain skills (And of course luck) - You might end up driving away your favourite car at a mouth watering deal. Such techniques, however, may not be applicable for all instances, especially in case of cars which are in a huge demand and selling like hot cakes already (Present Examples include New Suzuki Swift, Honda Jazz). Another nice occasion for availing a better deal is when a car is on verge of getting phased out / or replaced with successor. Manufacturers sometimes throw up tempting discounts on such models. But whatever the case may be, usually one has to compromise for one thing to fetch a great deal. Such as in first case - The car will be a year old manufacture and in second case - The model that you buy will be phased out from the market. Both the cases may affect on resale value to an extent but doesn’t bothers you and if you're looking for a long term ownership – It could be worth a compromise. Just think about it. Also, remember to drop your valuable views and more suggestions on this topic.
