Every hybrid registered in India over H2 FY 2024-25 — October 2024 to March 2025. The second half of the financial year, October to March. Month-by-month volumes, the manufacturer leaderboard, which segments those hybrids are in, and the same window in every earlier year on record.
Hybrid sales month by month, H2 FY 2024-25
India's hybrid vehicle market registered 1,95,787 hybrids in H2 FY 2024-25. Volumes more than doubled 113.5% against the 91,720 logged over the same 6 months of H2 FY 2023-24.
October was the strongest month of the period at 42,410 hybrids and February the quietest at 27,059, an average of 32,631 a month. 1 of those 3 months grew on the same month a year earlier.
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.

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. Information only, not investment advice.
