The financial year is about to come to an end, but the sluggish sales of cars since the past two months has been disappointing for the car industry. In the past eight months, February witnessed a seventh decline of car sales, a decline of 1.11% to be precise. With elections round the corner when customers generally defer car purchases, and an even slow sales forecast for the upcoming months, manufacturers have been offering discounts on their line-ups. These discounts are aimed at mainly clearing up the inventory and maintain momentum into the next fiscal year. Among others, there are discounts available on Honda and Toyota cars as well, making it a good time for driving home one of their models. Presenting a list of the discounts running on the models of the two makers for March.
