September 2026 was a good month for Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles (TMPV) on the sales front. The company was India’s second-largest carmaker by sales volume last month, with nearly 70,000 cars delivered. According to data published by Autopunditz, TMPV sold 68,810 cars in India in September 2026, registering a 15.3 per cent year-on-year growth. For reference, the company had delivered 59,667 cars in the same month last year.
As in September 2025, the Nexon (incl. Nexon.ev) was the brand’s best-selling Tata model last month. However, it wasn’t ahead of the second-highest-selling car, the Punch (incl.
