Maruti Suzuki achieved record sales in FY25 with 22.34 million units, led by WagonR as the best-selling car
Maruti Suzuki achieved its highest sales performance in FY25, amounting to 22,34,266 units across its domestic Indian market and international sales. The company achieved its highest-ever sales record during this financial year, exceeding the previous year’s figure of 21,35,323 units. Due to its diverse product lineup and intense market penetration, Maruti Suzuki maintains its position as a leader in the Indian automotive market.
WagonR Stays on Top as India’s Best-Selling Car
The WagonR from Maruti Suzuki maintained its position as India’s best-selling car for four straight years. The Tata Punch served as a powerful rival before the year’s start but consumers continue to prefer the WagonR over other models available in the market. Indian consumers maintain their strong preference for the hatchback because of its budget-friendly costs and high efficiency together with durability. The WagonR maintains steady performance, which has significantly contributed to Maruti Suzuki’s success while it continues to share prominence with other models including Swift, Baleno and Dzire.
Maruti Suzuki achieved substantial sales expansion throughout the reporting period, but the sub-compact segment reported a reduced performance involving Alto and S-Presso entry-level hatchbacks and WagonR and Baleno compact vehicles. The market transformation, along with changing consumer tastes, accounts for this decline in sales numbers.
Record Domestic and Export Sales in FY25
The domestic and export sales at Maruti Suzuki recorded their highest level in company history. The domestic market consumption of Maruti Suzuki reached 17,95,259 units in the recent period. Maruti Suzuki sent out 332,585 units for export because its vehicles maintained a steady international market appeal.
The overall sales figures of the fiscal year remained strong despite March 2025 marking a slight decrease in domestic sales when compared with the same period in the previous year. The March 2025 market delivered 1,92,984 total unit sales which represents a minor increase compared to the 1,87,196 unit sales from March 2024.
Exports exhibited significant growth in the market, increasing by 28% from the previous year. According to the growing global market share numbers, Maruti Suzuki continues to strengthen its role as a significant automotive industry player.
Outlook for FY26 and Future Plans
The FY26 financial period will bring about 1-2% growth predictions from industry analysts for Maruti Suzuki. The company is expecting more of the same performance in the coming year, according to Senior Executive Officer of Marketing & Sales Partho Banerjee. Maruti Suzuki intends to execute a 4% cost increase for its product range.
Market conditions alongside production costs led the company to implement a planned price increase soon. Maruti Suzuki maintains a strong position to succeed in the market despite existing limitations.
