5 Jan: Stop production.
15 Jan: Resume production.
1 Feb: Increase price.

Observe ⅓rd non-production days. Produce only ⅔rd of installed capacity. Increase the supply-demand gap. Take advantage of the situation to increase prices. Increase profit. Hurt agribusiness. Harm Pakistan. Feed greed. Rinse and repeat.

Again and again this has been discussed on CSPK, most recently here “auto assemblers deliberately produce a lower number of vehicles to maintain a demand-supply gap that favors them“, link https://carspiritpk.com/5-years-old-but-double-the-price-in-used-car-market/ dated 27 Jan ’23.
