As per the data released by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), a total of 1,53,758 units were sold in the domestic market in August 2014; the number was 1,33,513 units in August 2013.
Maruti Suzuki India, Hyundai and Honda Motor are the top three car manufacturers in India. All three recorded a double digit growth in August 2014 as against August 2013. Maruti Suzuki had maximum domestic monthly sales i.e. 82,823 units, which is up by 30% against the sales for same period of 2013. Car models that contributed the most to Maruti's growth include Swift, Dzire, Celerio and Ertiga.
