However, this time the export of the company, that is, exported well, which reduced the impact of the decline in domestic sales.

Maruti's highest export ever
On the one hand, sales have decreased in the country for Maruti, while Maruti has exported the most cars ever in June 2025. Export rose 22% to 37,842 units, which was 31,033 units in June 2024. This shows that the company is now paying more attention to foreign markets. Supply to other brands was also a slight increase with 8,812 units.
Why the sale of the company decreased?
Rahul Bharti, Senior Executive Officer of Maruti Suzuki, has said that the biggest reason for the decline in the sales of passenger vehicles is a sharp decline in the demand for small cars. Earlier the sales of passenger vehicles used to grow by one and a half times the country's GDP growth, but now, GDP is growing at a speed of 6.5%, yet the sales of cars are almost stable. The biggest reason for this is that the segment of small and inexpensive cars is no longer participating in this growth. ” Rahul Bharti said that this is the problem of affordability. Since 2019, the prices of entry-level cars have increased by more than 70%.
