The Indian automobile industry saw a record-breaking month in January 2025. Its sales figures broke previous records in both domestic and export sales. The total automobile units sold across all segments reached 19,35,696 units, jumping from 18,88,648 units in January 2024.
This growth indicates a promising future for the sector which is now backed by a favourable Union Budget 2025 and rising demand both in India and globally. The Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) has provided the data points for this story.
Indian consumers are buying more vehicles than ever before. January 2025 saw the highest-ever monthly passenger vehicle sales.
This moderate growth suggests strong consumer confidence, better affordability, and a shift toward personal mobility. The tax relief in the Union Budget 2025 could boost this number in the coming months, especially in the entry-level car segment.
Indian-made vehicles are gaining global traction also. India shipped out 4,62,500 units of automobile in January 2025 which is a significant jump from 3,29,915 units in January 2024.
This two-wheeler export number suggests that Indian motorcycles and scooters are in high demand overseas.
