How the group splits
Vahan files Daimler India CV as 2 separate manufacturers, so the headline above is their sum. Daimler India CV is the largest of them in May 2026 at 1,896 registrations, 95.7% of the group total.
Each row is a manufacturer name as the registration database itself records it.
| Entity | May 2026 | Share of group | YoY |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daimler India CV | 1,896 | 95.7% | +2.8% |
| Daimler India CV | 86 | 4.3% | +28.4% |
What Daimler India CV sells
87.4% of everything Daimler India CV has registered in 2026 is in goods carriers, and the company holds 2.1% of that segment nationally. Buses is next at 9.0%.
This split is the calendar year to date and cannot be cut to a single month: Vahan publishes a manufacturer's volume by month, and its volume by vehicle class, but never the two together. Multiplying them would be a guess, so the table stays on the axis where the number is exact.
Daimler India CV by segment, 2026
Calendar year to date — exact, but with no month axis.
| Segment | 2026 units | Share of company | Share of segment |
|---|---|---|---|

| Buses | 1,568 | 9.0% | 1.6% |

"Share of segment" is this company against every other manufacturer in the same segment, over the same months.
Fuel mix
Daimler India CV has registered no battery-electric vehicles in 2026 in this data.
Fuel, like segment, is published against the manufacturer for the whole year rather than by month, so these shares are 2026 to date. Hybrids are counted separately from battery electrics.
| Fuel | 2026 units | Share | vs 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diesel | 17,434 | 100.00% | 0.00pp |
Every manufacturer, May 2026
Ranked on total registrations across every vehicle type, which is the finest manufacturer split Vahan publishes with a month axis. Two-wheeler makers therefore sit above carmakers selling far more value — this is a count of vehicles, not of revenue.

More from the reports desk
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.
