India’s automotive sector continued to show positive momentum, with Kia India, TVS Motor Company, and JSW MG Motor India all reporting robust May auto sales growth, fuelled by rising demand and strong product portfolios.
Kia India reported a 14% year-on-year increase in dealer dispatches for May 2025, delivering 22,315 units compared to 19,500 in May 2024.
The company attributed this growth to the successful launch of the Carens Clavis, which received an ‘exceptional response’ from customers.
“Our strong sales performance in May reflects the growing resonance of Kia’s diverse offerings across segments,” said Hardeep Singh Brar, senior vice-president and national head of sales and marketing at Kia India.
He added that the positive momentum underscores Kia’s commitment to meeting evolving consumer needs with aspirational, value-focused vehicles.
TVS Motor Company posted a 17% rise in total sales for May, reaching 431,275 units, compared to 369,914 units a year earlier.
Two-wheeler sales rose by 16% to 416,166 units, while domestic two-wheeler sales increased by 14% to 309,287 units from 271,140 units in May 2024.
Three-wheeler sales saw a sharp 46% increase, reaching 15,109 units.
Exports also surged, climbing 22% to 118,437 units from 96,966 units in May 2024, reflecting continued international demand.
JSW MG Motor India recorded a 40% year-on-year increase in vehicle shipments to dealerships, with 6,304 units dispatched in May 2025, up from 4,510 units in May 2024.
This marks a strong showing for the recently formed joint venture between SAIC Motor and the JSW Group, established in 2023.
The upbeat results from these automakers highlight broad-based recovery and resilience in India’s automobile sector.
With rising consumer confidence, new product launches, and sustained demand in both domestic and export markets, May auto sales growth signals strong industry fundamentals heading into the second half of 2025.
