October so far

The Indian vehicle market has registered 1,764 vehicles in October 2026 so far. This page updates every day as the numbers land.

For scale, September finished at 25,39,648 and October 2025 at 41,70,550. The running total is 0.0% of last October's final figure.

Across the 9 completed months of 2026, 2,37,39,543 vehicles have been registered, +21.6% on the same stretch of 2025.

Registrations reach Vahan a few days after the sale, so the running total climbs through the month and for a few days after it closes. 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.

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 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.
