India’s auto sector is showing strong signs of revival as the latest FADA data highlights record-breaking trends. Passenger vehicle inventory has sharply reduced to 28 days from 52 days last year, indicating improving demand. The biggest boost is coming from the two-wheeler segment, which has surged over 13%, driven by affordability, better financing, and strong rural demand. March sales saw a massive jump, bringing the industry close to the 3-crore milestone for FY26. SUVs continue to dominate, while EVs, CNG, and hybrid vehicles are gaining traction. The sector has now returned to pre-COVID levels, signaling a robust recovery. However, rising prices and cost pressures could impact demand going forward.
