Kotak Institutional Equities is cautious about auto stocks as it expects a slowdown in growth for the sector. Speaking to CNBC-TV18, Sanjeev Prasad, MD and Co-Head of the firm, said that there is some negative bias toward the auto space.

"There will be a slowdown over here and on top of that there is already a disruption from multiple vehicles like two-wheelers, cost of EV versus two-wheeler,” he said.
