India’s passenger vehicle market closed November 2025 with strong year-on-year growth across all major OEMs, even as month-on-month numbers reflected the usual post-festive cooldown. The top six car manufacturers together sold 3,90,657 units, up 18.88% YoY from 3,28,626 units in November 2024. However, compared to October 2025’s festive / GST cut driven 4,32,321 units, industry volumes dipped 9.64% MoM, signalling a return to normalized demand cycles.
Car Sales Nov 2025 – YoY vs MoM
Maruti Suzuki continued to dominate the charts with 1,70,971 units, growing 20.99% YoY, thanks to strong demand for its hatchbacks and utility vehicles. On a MoM basis, however, Maruti saw a 3.03% decline from October’s 1,76,318 units.
Tata Motors secured second place with 57,436 units, a solid 22.04% YoY jump, driven by sustained interest in Punch and Nexon SUVs. MoM performance dipped 6.05%, mirroring industry trends. With the Sierra now launched, Tata Motors is getting ready to start deliveries from Jan 2026.
Mahindra, at a close third, posted 56,336 units, rising 21.88% YoY on the back of strong Scorpio, Thar, XUV3XO, Bolero, XUV700 demand. Yet, it registered the steepest MoM fall among the top three—down 20.95%—as production and dispatches settled after a high-output October.
Hyundai Motor India recorded 50,340 units, achieving a modest 4.34% YoY rise. Demand for Venue and Creta remained stable. Still, the company saw a 6.42% MoM decline amid transitions toward upcoming model updates.
