November so far

India's passenger car market has registered 273 vehicles in November 2026 so far. This page grows as the numbers land.

For scale, October finished at 4,66,761 and November 2025 at 3,93,507. The running total is 0.1% of last November's final figure.

Across the 10 completed months of 2026, 41,08,113 cars have been registered, +17.2% on the same stretch of 2025.

Registrations reach Vahan a few days after the sale, so the running total climbs through the month and for a few days after it closes. November catches the tail of Diwali deliveries; whether it looks strong or weak depends largely on the festive calendar.

These are privately registered cars and UVs. Vahan books taxis and cabs as a class of their own, another 24 in November 2026 so far, and passenger-vehicle figures published elsewhere usually include them. With taxis, the month stands at 297 passenger vehicles.

Registrations inside the segment only, counted with Vahan's own vehicle-class filter, so each number is that manufacturer's car volume (taxis are a separate class and are not included). Companies that file electric models under a maker of their own (Tata, Mahindra) appear as separate rows. Early in a month the order can move around a lot — a few hundred registrations separate places until the volume builds.

Frequently asked questions

How many cars have been sold in India in November 2026?
273 cars have been registered in India in November 2026 so far. The figure grows as Vahan publishes registrations. October finished at 4,66,761 and November 2025 at 3,93,507. The count is privately registered cars; taxis and cabs, which Vahan books separately, add another 24 so far.
When will the November 2026 car sales figure be final?
Registrations reach Vahan a few days after the sale, so November keeps building through the month and for roughly a week after it ends. This page keeps growing and becomes the final November report at the same address once the month closes.
Which company is leading car sales in November 2026?
Maruti Suzuki leads so far with 100 registrations, 36.6% of the month's volume, ahead of Tata Motors (PV) on 91.
What is the car market share in India in 2026?
Maruti Suzuki holds 37.7% of the Indian car market in 2026 so far on 15,49,814 registrations, +0.15pp against its full-year 2025 share. Mahindra is second on 12.6%.
What share of cars sold in India are electric?
Electric vehicles are 6.81% of car registrations in 2026 so far — 2,79,954 units, a change of +2.42pp on 2025. This counts battery EVs only; hybrids are reported separately.
Which state registers the most cars in India?
Maharashtra is the largest car market with 4,91,360 registrations in 2026 so far, 12.0% of the national total, ahead of Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat.
Are these wholesale dispatches or retail sales?
These are retail registrations from the government Vahan portal — a vehicle counts when it is actually registered to a buyer at an RTO. The monthly numbers manufacturers announce in press releases are wholesale dispatches to dealers, which is why the two rarely match. Vahan is the same source FADA and the industry use for retail data.

Source. Every figure is a vehicle registration, taken 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.
