Iran's Competition Council (session 758, July 8, 2026) again ruled the Industry Ministry's approved 15% car price hike falls short of the Protection Organization's justified 25%. The dispute lands on Tehran Bourse's automaker stocks, Khodro, Khasapa, Khegostar and Khbahman, a group that rode a Codal-driven rally in Khordad but now faces selling pressure from the collapsed Iran-US ceasefire.

Transcript

Today, Thursday July ninth, we look at Tehran's automaker stocks. The Council again called the fifteen percent hike insufficient. The Protection Organization calculated a justified rise near twenty five percent. The Ministry set its figure without fully following guideline five forty three. Four numbers this week: fifteen percent, twenty five percent, and a costlier dollar. Khodro and Saipa shares were halted for nearly a month before this rally. Many car parts are imported, so a rising dollar feeds into the price math. At the NATO summit, the US president called the ceasefire over. The dollar climbed past one hundred eighty thousand tomans on Wednesday. This dispute feeds directly into what households pay for a car. The spokesperson says the Ministry skipped part of the guideline. In the past month these stocks moved from a halt to a price hike, then this session. Referring the case onward could still bring a further price increase. Watch for the oversight ruling, and any fresh price filing on Codal. Read the full analysis on Sahmino.
