Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The impact of the relaxation of the Sales Tax on Luxury Goods (PPnBM) which began in March made car sales in February plummet. Many people prefer to wait a few weeks in order to get discounts of up to tens of millions. As a result, last month’s sales were hard to help.
“February fell by about 7% compared to January because in the midst of the announcement, people were definitely waiting for the policy to come out. Wholesales or from factories to dealerships were 49,202, while retail sales were 46,943 units,” he said.
In January 2021, wholesale sales had reached 52,910 units. However, sales in February were on a downward trend for two consecutive months. The reason is, from December to January there was also a decline. At the end of last year, sales had reached 57,507 units. However, at least there is potential for an increase this month.
“If it is still hard to sell 100,000 units this month, but hopefully it will reach 70-80 thousand units,” he said.
That statement if you search for sales for the initial 9 days. Even though he has not received complete data, Kukuh admits that he has received reports that there has been an increase in sales from many outlets or showrooms. In fact, the increase was many times over.
“Some friends reported that the oulet used to order 5 or 6 units a day, now it is 20 units / day. Or the 5, 6, 7 units are now 25 units / day,” said Kukuh.
