Two-wheeler sales rose by 28 per cent to 14,49,693 units in December 2023 as compared to 11,36,465 units sold in the year-ago period.
The Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA) stated that it has collated the sales data from 1,355 out of 1,442 regional transport offices across the country.
FADA noted that each sector within the auto retail industry is positioned for growth this year, navigating through the dynamic market conditions.
Passenger vehicles are expected to see growth with new product launches and stable market sentiments, it said.
The two-wheeler sector expects a boost from new model launches, especially in the first half of the year, and an overall better economic condition coupled with higher EV participation, the industry body said.
Improved customer sentiments, due to factors like lower fuel prices and crop payments to farmers, are likely to drive demand, it added.
Besides, the commercial vehicle segment is expected to grow on the back of increased government spending due to elections, infrastructural projects and demand in key industries like coal, cement, and iron ore.
The market is also expected to benefit from the replacement of older vehicles, FADA said.
