- In 2020, the passenger vehicles (PVs) segment accounted for the highest share of 64.1%, in terms of lubricant consumption. The dip in sales and the usage of the existing PV fleet due to COVID-19 restrictions led to a decline in lubricant consumption during the year.

During this period, PV engine oil consumption is likely to grow at a slower pace compared to other lubricants, owing to the rising sales of electric vehicles on the back of incentives offered in the country.
