India’s auto retail sales soar to record 4.02 million units in October: FADA

New Delhi, Nov 7 (UNI) The 42-day-long festive season, clubbed with reforms and rural resurgence, helped India’s auto retail sales soar to a record 4.02 million units in October 2025. According to data from the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA), this is an uptick of 40.5 per cent year-on-year from 2.87 million in October 2024.
Passenger vehicle (PV) sales breached the five-lakh mark, closing at 5.57 lakh units, an 11 per cent increase over last year’s 5 lakh units, while the two-wheelers also recorded their highest-ever monthly sales at 3.15 million units, up 52 per cent from 2.1 million a year ago.
Commercial vehicles (CVs) grew 18 per cent, aided by infrastructure spending and freight activity, while three-wheelers and tractors rose 5 per cent and 14 per cent, respectively. The only weak link was construction equipment, which fell 30 per cent Y-o-Y, impacted by project delays and tight financing.
