Since Maruti has been a popular choice for a first car as well, we will be taking a look at how it performed in sales last month, which is August 2026.

CarDekho Says..
Ahead of the festive season, Maruti cars have always been the sales leaders contributing to the Indian automotive market, and continue to have the largest pie share in overall sales. The year-on-year sales have risen, which does translate to the Maruti formula working pretty well and continuing to cater to the Indian audience.
Also, looking at this list, the last month was good for hatchbacks such as Wagon R, Baleno, Swift, and the Alto.
