About these figures
Are registrations the same as sales?
Not quite. A registration is a new vehicle registered at a transport office (RTO), usually within days of being bought, so registrations are the closest public count of retail sales. They differ from the factory dispatches (wholesale) that makers announce each month, which count vehicles sent to dealers.
How up to date are they?
Updated 11 November 2026. The figures cover every full month up to October 2026. November 2026 is still being counted, so it is left out of every total. Recent months can rise slightly for a few weeks as late registrations arrive.
Which vehicles are counted?
Two-wheelers: motorcycles, scooters and mopeds (bikes and scooters), including electric ones. Three-wheelers: auto-rickshaws for passengers and goods, and e-rickshaws. Cars & SUVs: cars, SUVs, MUVs and taxis: what the industry calls passenger vehicles (PV). Trucks & buses: goods carriers, buses, school buses, ambulances and other commercial vehicles (CV). Tractors, trailers and construction equipment are not counted (about 3% of all registrations).
