"The company sold a total of 465,911 vehicles during the quarter. Sales in the domestic market were 403,929 units and exports were 61,982 units.

During the quarter, the company registered a net sales of Rs 27,849.2 crore. During the same period previous year, the net sales were at Rs 22,187.6 crore.
