Maruti Suzuki is experiencing a significant sales surge during the festive season, with bookings reaching 2.5 lakh and exports growing by 50 percent. The company delivered an impressive 1,65,000 vehicles in the first eight days of Navratri, and anticipates a record-breaking 2,00,000 deliveries by Dussehra, surpassing previous ten-year records. This positive performance is driven by high customer demand, with current bookings totaling 2.5 lakh units. Last year’s Navratri deliveries were around 1 lakh vehicles, indicating a doubling of sales this year. Exports also saw substantial growth, with 42,000 vehicles exported. The production team is working tirelessly to meet the high demand, including working on Sundays and holidays. A positive outlook is expected for October, considering the existing 2.5 lakh pending bookings. The focus is on delivering vehicles to customers quickly. Following the GST Council’s rate cut in August, many buyers who had postponed their purchases began booking cars, contributing to the high demand. Bookings have increased from around 10,000 to 18,000 per day. Sales of small cars are also performing strongly, showing a 100 percent growth. Metropolitan cities are witnessing growth of about 35-40 percent.
