How February went

India's two-wheeler market registered 17,69,126 vehicles in February 2026. Volumes climbed sharply 25.4% against February 2025, and fell back 8.0% on January. It was the strongest February in that record.

That is 3 consecutive months of year-on-year growth for the segment. Year to date, 36,91,929 units have been registered across 2 months, +23.0% on the same stretch of 2025 (30,02,241). The segment accounted for 70.0% of every vehicle registered in India that month.

February is the shortest month on the calendar, which flatters its daily run-rate and flatters nothing else.

Market share, year to date

Share is measured inside the segment itself — only two-wheeler volume counts on either side of the ratio. Volume is 2026 year to date. The comparison is against the whole of 2025.

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.

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.
