Production has been reduced from 10k units to almost half due to production restrictions. In November, HCIL used non-production days to deal with a chip shortage.

Commenting on Nov'21 sales performance, Rajesh Goel, Sr. Vice President and Director-Marketing & Sales, Honda Cars India Ltd said, "Despite consistent demand in the market, supply-side issues owing to the global chip shortage remain a concern. The company had to resort to non-production days in November'21 because of the same. We have been selling our entire production stock during the last few months and making all efforts to meet the market demand as much as possible."
