Auto sector analyst Arsalan Hanif said PSMC increased car prices due to global inflationary pressure increasing raw material prices. “This will also improve margins of the company as it has been in an operating loss due to higher demurrage charges and financial charges on delayed delivery to customers,” Hanif said. However, Hanif added that sales would remain under pressure due to lower purchasing power, inflationary pressure and higher interest rates.
