Car sales plunge sharply in August as buyers wait for GST rate reduction
The New Indian Express Vellore
|September 02, 2025
Reacting to speculation of a significant GST (goods and services tax) rate cut, car sales in India fell sharply in August 2025 as buyers delayed purchases and dealers reduced stock orders.
Domestic passenger vehicle (PV) sales of India's largest carmaker—Maruti Suzuki (MSIL)—fell 8% year-on-year to 131,278 units in August 2025, down from 143,075 units in the corresponding month last year. Maruti's entry-level mini segment (Alto, S-Presso), where chances of a GST rate cut are high, fell to just 6,853 units in August 2025, a fall of 36% YoY.
The carmaker's SUV sales fell 14% to 54,043 units in August as it is preparing for a new model launch on September 3. Mahindra & Mahindra's SUV sales fell 9% YoY in August to 39,399 units, while Tata Motors' PV sales fell 7% to 41,001 units. Hyundai Motor saw its domestic PV sales falling by 11% YoY to 44,001 units.
