The last month was pretty hard for the automobile industry as many states & UTs have once again imposed lockdown to fight against the coronavirus disease (COVID19). And that's the reason most of the models have registered negative MoM growth in April month. The Maruti Suzuki Dzire and Hyundai Venue were the only two models that have seen positive growth against the March month.
It is important to note that there was a nationwide lockdown in April 2020, that's why we haven't compared the April 2021 sales numbers with those for April last year.
The list is topped by the Maruti Suzuki WagonR compact hatchback, outselling the Swift by a small margin.
