The arrival of 60,000 to 80,000 foreign cars from the first half of 1401
According to Tejarat News, the representative of the people of Saqr in the parliament, referring to the latest developments regarding the car import law, said: The meeting of the Industries and Mines Commission of the parliament was held on Sunday in the presence of Minister Samat. At this meeting, the delegates insisted on their previous positions regarding the need to import cars in the discussion of Article 4 of the car market organization plan and announced that car imports are in favor of market competitiveness, end of monopoly and adjustment of car prices.
Rahimi continued: “Finally, it was decided to form a special committee to examine issues related to car imports.” In this committee, the objections and opinions of the Guardian Council, the Central Bank and the Supreme Council for Supervision of the General Policies of the System will be examined and efforts will be made to provide solutions to solve the problems. If this decree is implemented, the currency needed to import cars will be provided through foreign currency and the export of cars and parts.
A member of the presidium of the Parliamentary Committee on Industries and Mines reminded: The reason why the deputies insist on the implementation of this resolution is that in this article, the import of cars is left to the discussion of exporting parts, cars and some related industries. The conditions of the car market and the lack of competition in this market demand that competition be created in this market through ideas such as car imports on the one hand, and car prices be adjusted through balancing supply and demand on the other hand.
The representative pointed out that the current objections raised by the Central Bank and the Guardian Council regarding the import of cars are due to currency shortages in the country. Currency is facing, the adoption and implementation of this idea may lead to foreign exchange capacity in the country to import cars and subsequently increase the exchange rate.
Rahimi said: “Even with regard to deposit currencies abroad, it is announced that the origin of any possible currency used to import cars must be determined.” Delegates are reviewing available solutions to address these issues. At present, the plan has been returned to the commission by the Guardian Council in order to remove the ambiguities and objections. Finally, after resolving the objections, the issue will be sent to the board of directors and will be on the agenda of the court to announce the final opinion of the representatives.
The representative of Saqez in the parliament emphasized: In general, the deputies emphasize the implementation of this plan and believe that the import of cars is a serious necessity in the current situation. Fortunately, Minister Samat, unlike in the past, has agreed to the principle of the issue and is preparing the necessary infrastructure for the implementation of the plan. On the other hand, it should be noted that the cars that are to be imported into the country are not in the class of cheap cars that domestic automakers are worried about the future of their products.
He added: “On the other hand, imports create the capacity for domestic automakers to take a look at the export markets of neighboring countries and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization by improving quality indicators and making their products more competitive.” At present, it seems that the lack of competition in the country’s car market has caused a certain kind of stagnation in the domestic market, and domestic automakers have distanced themselves from the desired growth due to lack of competition.
Automakers need to be able to compete
Regarding the reasons why the representatives did not enter the issue of offering cars on the stock exchange, Rahimi said: The fact is that the representatives believe that if Article 4 of the reorganization plan (car import discussion) is approved and implemented, many goals that the representatives seek in the car market will be resolved. شد. Objectives such as adjusting car prices, balancing the supply and demand system, removing the market from monopoly, making products more competitive and improving quality, and other goals that the representatives pursue from the heart of the car market organization plan.
Noting that the delegates are waiting for a decision to be made on the import issue first, and then to enter into a general review of the car market reorganization plan, he said: The use of currencies derived from exports and the assignment of the source of foreign currencies is what the deputies are trying to solve.
Rahimi stated: with the implementation of this decree, between 60,000 and 80,000 foreign cars will enter the country with the statements included in the plan. The arrival of these standard cars will make domestic carmakers think about improving the quality of their cars, because they will no longer be the exclusive supplier of cars in the domestic market. Meanwhile, competition among automakers to export more of their products will heat up.
A member of the board of directors of the Industries Commission, in response to a question from an Eqtesadonline reporter, in this regard, when do you think the date of possible implementation of the car import discussion will be? He said: “I think the first half of 1401 is the time when the process of operationalization of this plan can be keyed.” During this period, both part of the country’s currency problems will be reduced and the Ministry of Silence will have the opportunity to provide the necessary grounds for the implementation of this plan. The plan is likely to be on the court’s agenda after the end of next week’s parliamentary recess, when lawmakers will go to the polls to protest.
