Plunge in vehicle sales sees Maruti Suzuki cut temporary workforce by 6%

Maruti Suzuki, India's biggest automaker, has cut the number of workers it employs on temporary after seeing a dip in vehicle sales. The brand, which accounts to nearly half of India's manufacturing output, is currently going through one of its worst slowdowns in a decade with a plunge in sales and doesn't see a sign of revival any time soon. Maruti said there was a 33.5% decline in sales from July 2018.
