Auto Sales October 2022: Tata Motors’ Passenger Vehicle Sales Grow By 33%

Tata Motors today announced that it sold 45,423 units in October 2022. This is 33 per cent more than what the company sold in the same month a year ago. However, the company sold more than 47,000 units in September 2022, and in October, the drop in sales was close to 5 per cent in the passenger vehicle space. This drop has been attributed to a planned shutdown of the Pune plant for preventive maintenance and debottlenecking actions which led to a drop in production in October.

The Tiago EV was launched on September 28, 2022
