Mahindra Auto – November 2018 Sales Report
Commenting on the monthly performance, Rajan Wadhera, President, Automotive Sector, M&M Ltd. said,
We have registered a double-digit growth in our overall sales. However, adverse macro-economic conditions have impacted the growth forecast for the automotive industry in general. Going forward, we hope that decrease in fuel prices and improving liquidity will drive demand for passenger vehicles. At Mahindra, we remain upbeat due to our new product launches of Marazzo, Alturas G4 and the upcoming launch of our new SUV codenamed S201.
