Semiconductor supply improving; waiting periods coming down: Maruti Suzuki

NEW DELHI: The availability of semiconductors has slowly-but-surely improved which has allowed for greater production as well as reduced waiting periods for some car models, automobile major Maruti Suzuki India said.

The global shortage has been triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic-induced supply hurdles as well as healthy demand.

Accordingly, the phenomenon has been blamed on the exponential rise in demand for personal electronics such as cellphones and laptops during the ongoing pandemic.
