India’s automobile sector delivered a broad-based sales expansion in February, led by strong performances from Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra and Hyundai Motor India. The month reflected resilient consumer demand across passenger vehicles, even as financing costs and supply chain complexities continued to shape market dynamics. Analysts attribute the uptick to sustained rural recovery, improved model availability and continued preference for SUVs and premium hatchbacks.
