As we approach the end of the year, about three months after the Competition Council removed the seasonal car pricing, no definite decision has been made on car pricing, and the fate of pricing in the new year is unclear.
Khodrocar - At the same time with the approval of the general plan of organizing the car in the Islamic Consultative Assembly, it was expected that from now on car pricing will be done in the form of commodity exchange and price discovery based on supply and demand, although contradictory statements The removal of the Competition Council from the car price circle was proposed, but in the end, the determination of the base price for offering on the commodity exchange was left to this council.
However, according to automotive industry activists, the incorrect pricing formula of the Competition Council in recent years has led to billions in losses and also imposed huge costs on automakers, which is necessary to remove the council from the pricing cycle, to liberalize prices. Take action in the automotive industry.
On the other hand, several meetings were held in the form of a production leap working group with the aim of determining the car pricing model, but these meetings have not yet reached a definite conclusion.
At the same time, automotive industry activists say that the increase in raw material prices in line with the exchange rate is the main reason for the rising prices, and on the other hand, due to the pressures, do not consider it possible to correct this trend. Are known as price control strategies.
Maziar Biglou, secretary of the Association of Manufacturers of Auto Parts and Assemblies, in an interview with Khodrocar reporter, referring to the need to liberalize prices in the automotive industry, said: "At the same time as determining car prices based on market margins, the sale should move toward leasing."
Referring to the increase in raw material prices based on the dollar exchange rate, he added: "The source of the increase in car prices in recent years are sellers of raw materials, including steel, copper, petrochemicals and aluminum. The initial has not been concluded.
Emphasizing that the Competition Council is involved in a part of the pricing of the automotive industry and can not be eliminated, Bigelow states: What this council should consider is to reform the pricing formula and move it towards price. It is over. On the other hand, at this price, other items can be controlled.
The secretary of the Parts Manufacturers Association states that it is possible to order the liberalization of raw material prices for manufacturers: If the raw material prices are liberalized, the price of cars in the factory will be reduced by 30%, so if the price of copper, If aluminum, steel and petrochemicals are subject to mandatory price liberalization, car prices will also fall.
He continues: to improve the situation of industry and car market, there are two ways to reduce the price of raw materials or increase people's income, but in the current situation, no one is willing to implement these two factors and the losers of this game are definitely two groups. First, the people who are the customers of this market, and second, the private parts manufacturers who have no way out.
