Domestic auto demand remains strong across categories, with total vehicles registered up 27% YoY (2026-07), passenger vehicle sales up 14% YoY (2026-06), 2-wheelers up 23% YoY (2026-06), and tractor sales up 18% YoY (2026-07). Core demand is reinforced by vehicle sales of 395199 units (Jul/26) and car registrations of 457810 units (Jul/26), outweighing FPI outflows of INR -11826 crore over 3 months to 2026-08-31. The stance stays positive because fundamentals are stronger than positioning.
