Nov/Dec month data will be crucial in determining if there will be growth in the last one year numbers. Otherwise the month did not have any surprises. Waiting for the Q2 results to be declared in coming week on Nov 8th.
As per the Vahan sales data, it is clearly evident that ACE has outpaced the competition in terms of growth w.r.t last year. ACE have grown by 21% whereas ECL & JCB by 9 & 10% resp.
