recording a 16% gain over last year same month.
There is a strong customer
sentiment and it is expected to hit top this festive season as it posed a
handsome growth in August. Other key segments posted double digit growth in
August.

Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (Siam), passenger vehicle sales in
August stood at 258,722 units against 221,743 units sold in the same month last

for all segments is all set to post a strong growth due to a number of positive
reasons like decent monsoon, implementation of 7th pay commission
for all government employees.

improved models also gave the boost to the demand as we see months of waiting
period for models like the Creta, Suzuki Baleno & Brezza.
