Full Vahan registration report for July 2025 — every major manufacturer ranked, with month-on-month and year-on-year change, segment share, fuel mix and the state-wise picture.
How July went
India's passenger car market registered 3,16,060 vehicles in July 2025. Volumes edged up 1.0% against July 2024, and grew 8.6% on June.
That is 5 consecutive months of year-on-year growth for the segment. Year to date, 23,43,607 units have been registered across 7 months, +4.9% on the same stretch of 2024 (22,34,534). The segment accounted for 15.3% of every vehicle registered in India that month.
July sits inside the monsoon, historically a soft month for urban showroom footfall and a strong one for farm equipment.
These are privately registered cars and UVs. Vahan books taxis and cabs as a class of their own, another 31,449 in July 2025, and passenger-vehicle figures published elsewhere usually include them. With taxis, the month comes to 3,47,509.

Source. Every figure is a vehicle registration, taken daily from the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways' Vahan 4 dashboard (vahan.parivahan.gov.in) — the same source FADA and the industry use for retail data. Registrations are not the wholesale dispatch numbers manufacturers announce each month. "EV" means battery electric (Vahan fuels PURE EV and ELECTRIC(BOV)); hybrids are counted separately.
