How November went

India's passenger vehicle market registered 3,47,750 vehicles in November 2024. Volumes fell back 10.5% against November 2023, and tumbled 32.1% on October.

Passenger vehicles (PV, also called 4W) are privately registered cars and UVs plus taxis and cabs, which Vahan books as a class of their own. In November 2024 that was 3,23,074 cars and UVs and 24,676 taxis and cabs; taxis were 7.1% of the total. Against November 2023, cars and UVs were −11.7% and taxis +9.4%.

Year to date, 39,20,261 units have been registered across 11 months, +5.7% on the same stretch of 2023 (37,08,779). The segment accounted for 10.4% of every vehicle registered in India that month.

November catches the tail of Diwali deliveries; whether it looks strong or weak depends largely on the festive calendar.

Registrations inside the segment only, counted with Vahan's own vehicle-class filter, so each number is that manufacturer's passenger vehicle volume (its cars and UVs plus its taxis and cabs). Companies that file electric models under a maker of their own (Tata, Mahindra) appear as separate rows.

Market share, year to date

Share is measured inside the segment itself — only passenger vehicle volume counts on either side of the ratio. Volume is full-year 2024. The comparison is against the whole of 2023.

Frequently asked questions

How many passenger vehicles were sold in India in November 2024?
3,47,750 passenger vehicles were registered in India in November 2024, −10.5% against November 2023 and −32.1% against the previous month. Year to date the total is 39,20,261 units, +5.7% year on year. Figures are Vahan registrations — actual vehicles put on the road. The total is 3,23,074 privately registered cars and UVs plus 24,676 taxis and cabs.
What counts as a passenger vehicle (PV)?
Privately registered cars and utility vehicles (Vahan class Motor Car) plus taxis and cabs (Motor Cab and Maxi Cab), which Vahan books as a class of their own. Passenger-vehicle (PV, or 4W) sales figures published elsewhere usually count both; our car sales report counts the cars alone.
Which company sold the most passenger vehicles in November 2024?
Maruti Suzuki led with 1,36,127 registrations in November 2024, −14.9% year on year. It was followed by Hyundai (47,552), Mahindra (46,616), Tata Motors (PV) (40,883).
What is the passenger vehicle market share in India in 2024?
Maruti Suzuki holds 40.3% of the Indian passenger vehicle market in 2024 on 17,04,857 registrations, −0.80pp against its full-year 2023 share. Hyundai is second on 13.8%.
What share of passenger vehicles sold in India are electric?
Electric vehicles are 2.49% of passenger vehicle registrations in 2024 — 1,05,143 units, a change of +0.27pp on 2023. This counts battery EVs only; hybrids are reported separately.
Which state registers the most passenger vehicles in India?
Maharashtra is the largest passenger vehicle market with 5,00,653 registrations in 2024, 11.8% 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.
