Mumbai: Tata Motors Limited kicked off 2026 on a high note, registering total commercial vehicle (CV) sales of 41,549 units in January 2026, marking a robust 29.9% year-on-year growth compared to 31,988 units sold in January 2025.
In simple terms: more Tata trucks, buses and pickups are now officially keeping India’s roads—and economy—busier than ever.
Heavy vehicles lead the charge
The company’s Medium & Heavy Commercial Vehicles (MH&ICV) segment delivered particularly strong performance:
- Domestic MH&ICV sales: 19,676 units in January 2026 vs 15,137 units in January 2025
- Domestic & International MH&ICV sales: 20,792 units vs 16,076 units in the same period last year
This growth reflects rising momentum across sectors such as infrastructure, logistics, mining, construction and public transport—basically, wherever something heavy needs to be moved, Tata seems to be getting the call.
A growth story powered by the economy
The near 30% jump highlights the steady recovery and expansion in India’s commercial mobility landscape, driven by higher freight movement, infrastructure projects and last-mile delivery demand. From city buses and tipper trucks to long-haul hauliers, Tata Motors continues to remain a preferred partner for fleet operators across the country.
Or as fleet owners might put it more practically: “If the economy is moving, it’s probably on a Tata.”
Part of the USD 180 billion Tata Group, Tata Motors is India’s largest commercial vehicle manufacturer with over eight decades of leadership in trucks, buses, pick-ups and utility vehicles. The company is known for its focus on advanced powertrains, connected vehicle technologies, and intelligent fleet solutions, supporting applications ranging from urban logistics to long-distance transport and public mobility.
With operations spanning India and South Korea and a strong global presence across Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, Southeast Asia and SAARC nations, Tata Motors continues to drive its brand promise of “Better Always”—delivering future-ready mobility solutions with an eye on sustainability and customer experience.
Following the Composite Scheme of Arrangement sanctioned by the Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench, the company’s name stands as Tata Motors Limited effective 29 October 2025, with its equity shares listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE) from 12 November 2025.
The road ahead
With infrastructure spending accelerating and logistics demand growing, Tata Motors’ strong January performance sets a confident tone for FY26. If this momentum continues, India’s highways might soon need less traffic police—and more parking space for Tata trucks.
