CNG Vehicle sales month by month, Q3 FY 2024-25

India's CNG and LPG vehicle market registered 3,85,472 CNG vehicles in Q3 FY 2024-25 — 3 months of registration data covering October 2024 to December 2024.

October was the strongest month of the period at 1,72,306 CNG vehicles and December the quietest at 94,381, an average of 1,28,491 a month.

October is the festive peak. Navratri and Diwali make it the single biggest registration month of most years, so year-on-year comparisons swing on where the festivals fall.

CNG vehicles accounted for 4.7% of everything registered in India over the period. The whole market ran to 81,63,498 vehicles over the same window.

Who is selling the CNG vehicles

Vahan publishes manufacturer volumes split by fuel only across a whole calendar year, so the CNG leaderboard below covers full-year 2024 rather than Q3 FY 2024-25 alone. It is exact for that window.

Maruti Suzuki holds 44.0% of CNG and LPG registrations over full-year 2024, ahead of Bajaj Auto.

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.
