If the statement is understood between two individuals for what it is intended, it is preferable and correct. Before this thread, I myself did not know "How are you going?" had the same meaning in Australia as "How are you doing?"
Putting that aside as a valid example, the only other situation I can think of it being used is as an inquiry as to how the other person is travelling to another location (for example: walking, by plane, by train, bicycling).
*chuckles* Apologies if I am unable to successfully communicate the ideas I put forward in forum posts. But hey, that's the basis of improving communication, right?
