Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles announced that it delivered more than one lakh cars and SUVs between Navratri and Diwali, registering a 33% increase compared to the same festive period last year. The company’s strong showing during the 30-day window was driven primarily by its SUV portfolio, with Managing Director and CEO Shailesh Chandra crediting the demand surge to growing consumer preference for larger and more versatile vehicles.
