According to published data from the Indian Society of Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), sales of passenger cars rose 18 percent to 281,380 vehicles. The figures do not include sales by Tata Motors, as they do no longer submit monthly sales figures to the association. Sales of two-wheelers rose 10 percent to a total of 1,426,865 units, of which 464,744 were scooters and 910,323 were motorcycles. Sales of three-wheelers, on the other hand, fell 34 percent to 27,331 units.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7249 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/certification-india.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/stock-image-7447240-s-2015.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>India&#8217;s largest automaker, Maruti Suzuki India (MSI), also benefited from rising demand last year.
