The commercial vehicles major said demand is still to pick up due to lockdown. "In view of the above, we expect that our plants will be operational only for 5-10 days, for the month of June 2021," the company said. Last month, Ashok Leyland had announced it has curtailed production at its manufacturing plants due to dip in demand with second wave of Covid-19 sweeping across the country.

The company has carefully studied the demand situation, and efforts are being made to match the demand on the one hand, while being cognisant of the disruptions in the supply situation.
