Who is selling the CNG vehicles

Our Vahan data holds manufacturer volumes split by fuel only across a whole calendar year, so the CNG leaderboard below covers full-year 2025 rather than Q2 FY 2025-26 alone. It is exact for that window.

Maruti Suzuki holds 46.6% of CNG and LPG registrations over full-year 2025, ahead of Bajaj Auto.

Which segments the CNG vehicles are in

The chart is period-exact: it is the CNG and LPG share of every vehicle registered in each month of Q2 FY 2025-26. The split by segment underneath comes from a calendar-year table — Vahan publishes class against fuel only across a whole year — so it covers full-year 2025.

Are these retail sales or factory dispatches?
Retail. Every figure is a vehicle registration recorded on the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways' Vahan 4 dashboard — the same source FADA uses — not the wholesale dispatch numbers manufacturers announce each month. Registrations reach Vahan a few days after the sale, so recent months keep rising slightly for a while after they close.
