Car sales in June signal strong demand recovery
NEW DELHI: India's passenger vehicle industry ended the first quarter of FY27 on a strong footing, with most major automakers reporting healthy year-on-year growth in June, reflecting resilient consumer demand for SUVs and electric vehicles, despite supply disruptions at select manufacturers.
Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles emerged as the biggest gainer among leading carmakers, reporting sales of 63,083 cars and SUVs in June, up 69% from a year earlier. The company also recorded its highest-ever monthly EV sales of 14,800 units, nearly three-times last year's figure, helping quarterly passenger vehicle sales climb 46% to 1,82,574 units. Tata attributed the growth to strong demand for refreshed Tiago and Punch, while noting that supply constraints affecting Sierra production are expected to ease during the current quarter.
