Maruti Suzuki August Sales 2025: Down By Wholesale Stood At 1,80,683 Units

Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL) reported total sales of 1,80,683 units in August 2025, a marginal dip from 1,81,782 units in August 2024. The decline was largely driven by weaker domestic passenger vehicle (PV) demand, even as exports provided some relief.

Domestic passenger vehicle sales stood at 1,31,278 units, down from 1,43,075 units of the corresponding month last year. This comes down to a YoY drop of 8 per cent. Further, the entry-level mini segment (Alto, S-Presso) was the hardest hit, plunging from 10,648 units in August 2024 to 6,853 units this year, corresponding a massive YoY drop of 36 per cent.
