What to watch
- Monthly FADA retail registration data for June 2026

- EV booking-to-delivery conversion rates after the 15-20% inquiry spike
- Monsoon progress and rural sentiment affecting tractor and entry 2W demand
- Financing rates and dealer inventory days
- Cross-check Yes Securities projection against FADA/SIAM weekly retail trackers before fading or confirming
- Screen 2W OEMs (Hero, Bajaj, TVS) and EV-exposed names for momentum continuation into the print
- Monitor tractor majors (M&M, Escorts) for demand elasticity post price hike and subsidy withdrawal
- Position for sector rotation into auto ancillaries if 2W/EV booking strength holds
