Honda Cars India Ltd (HCIL) recorded a total sales of 8,096 units in September 2025, driven by a strong festive-season demand. Domestic sales stood at 5,303 units, while exports accounted for 2,793 units.

Compared to September 2024, this has been a sluggish month for the Japanese car manufacturer. Last year, domestic sales totalled 5,675 units, while exports stood at 5,239 units. HCIL is seeing a shift in sales mix, favouring domestic festive purchases.

“In September, we witnessed a strong pick-up in both wholesales and deliveries from Navratras onwards, as customers aligned their purchases following the GST-related announcements. The GST 2.0 has come as a boon, making cars more affordable with reduced prices and ongoing offers. We expect this momentum to continue into October with heightened customer sentiment during Dhanteras and Diwali,” said Kunal Behl, Vice President, Marketing & Sales, HCIL.

The sales performance reflects the positive impact of GST reforms on the auto sector and growing consumer confidence during the festive season.
