New Delhi: Led by robust demand in the festive period, Maruti Suzuki India and Tata Motors are looking to have record retail sales in October. The companies are also eyeing bumper deliveries to customers on Dhanteras.

The country’s largest carmaker, Maruti Suzuki, said it has delivered about 30,000 units to customers on Tuesday.

“October is going be all-time high for us in terms of retail sales. It will be the highest ever. The earlier highest was 1,91,476 units in October 2020,” Banerjee said.
