Nalinikanth Gollagunta, CEO of the Automotive Division at Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., highlighted the milestone: "The Financial year ended on a very positive note, with Mahindra clocking its highest-ever volumes in both SUVs & LCVs (<3.5T) segments, a significant milestone for the company. In March, we achieved SUV sales of 60,272 units, a growth of 25% and LCV <3.5T sales of 24,928 units, a growth of 11% YoY. Total vehicle sales stood at 99,969 units, a 21% YoY growth."

The company, a leader in India's utility vehicle market, sold zero cars or vans in the passenger segment, focusing squarely on SUVs. Commercial vehicles showed stability, with LCV 2T sales flat at 3,526 units and three-wheelers surging 39 per cent to 10,801 units in March.
