COVID-19 Impact: Market Growth Declined by Pandemic due to Supply Chain Interruption

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

Supply chain disrupted and the accessibility of raw material was delayed caused by the constraint on movement of material. This affected the production work of the reciprocating engine. Hence, it caused a decline in the market expansion. The demand for automobile industries for engines decreased during the pandemic as all the industries were closed because of the lockdown limitation imposed by the government. The uplift of lockdown restriction and resuming the operation of production has helped the market to grow over.
