Abstract

We use administrative data from a representative state in Brazil to provide robust estimates of the heterogeneous impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on durable versus non-durable sectors. Employing a dynamic differences-in-differences strategy, our results suggest a 62\% relative reduction in revenues for the automotive industry (durable) in the pandemic shock, accompanied by a nearly 70\% decline in tax collection within the durable relative to the non-durable sector for the three three-month crisis period. Furthermore, our analysis indicates a rebound within three months, reinforcing the fast response of the durable sector after a crisis.
