Tata Motors has announced impressive sales figures for January 2026, recording total passenger vehicle sales of 71,066 units. This performance marks a significant uptick in the company’s market momentum, with the domestic market contributing the lion’s share of deliveries.

- Total passenger vehicles sold: 71,066 units
- Domestic market sales: 70,222 units
- International market deliveries: 822 units
- Global EV sales: 9,052 units
Massive Month-on-Month Growth
Tata Motors witnessed remarkable growth compared to the previous month, with January 2026 sales registering a 47.1 percent increase over December 2025’s figure of 48,316 units. This substantial jump reflects strong consumer demand and effective market strategies.
The electric vehicle segment showed particularly impressive momentum, with global EV sales of 9,052 units representing over 72 percent growth compared to December 2025.
Nexon Achieves Historic Milestone
The Tata Nexon lineup, encompassing both conventional and electric powertrains, reached a significant achievement by surpassing 10 lakh (1 million) cumulative sales. January 2026 alone saw the Nexon record its best-ever monthly performance with over 23,000 units delivered to customers.
This milestone solidifies the Nexon’s position as one of India’s most successful compact SUVs, demonstrating sustained consumer appeal across both ICE and EV variants.
Punch Sets New Records
The Tata Punch continued its success story with record-breaking sales of over 19,000 units in January 2026, marking the micro-SUV’s highest monthly performance since launch.
Notably, the Punch has also reached the 7 lakh cumulative sales mark, achieving this milestone faster than any other vehicle in the Indian automotive industry, according to Tata Motors.
Tiago Crosses Major Sales Threshold
The Tiago hatchback, Tata’s entry-level offering, has surpassed 7 lakh cumulative sales, reinforcing its position as a popular choice in the affordable car segment.
New Launches Driving Interest
Tata Motors attributes part of its strong performance to heightened customer interest in recent product launches, including:
- Tata Sierra: The much-anticipated modern interpretation of the iconic nameplate
- Petrol variants: New petrol engine options for the Harrier and Safari SUVs
- Updated Punch: The facelifted version of the popular micro-SUV
The company has been systematically increasing Sierra production capacity to address growing customer demand and reduce waiting periods.
Market Outlook
These figures demonstrate Tata Motors’ strengthening position in India’s passenger vehicle market. The combination of successful existing models, strategic new launches, and growing EV adoption appears to be resonating well with Indian consumers.
The substantial year-on-year momentum, particularly in the EV segment, suggests that Tata Motors is well-positioned to maintain its leadership in India’s electric vehicle space while continuing to grow its conventional vehicle portfolio.
