New Delhi, October 21: Amid robust festive demand post reduction of Goods and Services Tax (GST) on automobiles, Tata Motors on Tuesday said that it has delivered over 1 lakh cars within the last 30 days from Navratri to Deepawali, since the tax reforms came into effect on September 22. The Tata Group’s automobile manufacturer saw a massive 33 per cent Year-on-Year (YoY) surge in sales during this period, with SUVs continuing to dominate the market.
“Over the 30 days from Navratri to Diwali, we have achieved a landmark milestone with over 1 lakh vehicle deliveries, reflecting a robust 33 per cent growth compared to the same period last year.
