Tata Motors Set to Deliver 25,000+ Cars This Dhanteras & Diwali

Tata Motors expects 25,000+ deliveries this Dhanteras–Diwali, led by Nexon, Punch, and Tiago EV, with 30% YoY growth and GST 2.0 boost.

Tata Motors is set for one of its best festive seasons. The company expects to deliver over 25,000 vehicles during Dhanteras and Diwali across India. Year on year growth is about 30 percent, driven by strong demand, smart finance offers, and the boost from GST 2.0. Because the festival window runs for two to three days this year, more buyers are aligning deliveries with auspicious mahurats. This is a bright phase for Tata’s passenger vehicle business.

Amit Kamat, Chief Commercial Officer at Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles said, bookings are up across both ICE and EV models. Nexon, Punch, and Tiago EV are the top choices this season. Dealers report higher footfall and near full delivery calendars for these models. Buyers like Tata’s reliability, and the wider lineup helps. The new Safari and Harrier continue to attract family and SUV customers.

The Diwali surge links closely to GST 2.0, which lowered effective tax for sub‑4‑metre cars with smaller engines. This made cars more affordable for middle‑class buyers and lifted market sentiment. Bundled finance schemes and extended warranty offers add value for both city and rural customers. Dealers also report around 20 percent higher inventory movement than last year, enabling quicker handovers in peak hours.

The wider market is also at record levels. Maruti Suzuki targets about 51,000 festive deliveries, while Hyundai aims near 14,000. With 25,000‑plus deliveries, Tata is among the top three this Dhanteras. That places it ahead of Mahindra and Kia in festive volumes. The two‑day Dhanteras window lets brands meet more delivery requests and honor preferred mahurat timings.

This strong run shows confidence in Tata’s product plan. Tiago EV and Punch EV continue to pull first‑time EV buyers in metro areas. Nexon and Punch remain steady volume drivers in compact SUVs. Focus on safety, clean design, and connected features builds trust with modern buyers who want performance, durability, and technology in one package.

Retail partners echo the momentum on the ground. Many dealers hit same‑day delivery records for compact SUVs. A wide network and digital pre‑booking keep coordination smooth and turnarounds fast. Showrooms stayed open late over the weekend for walk‑ins and handovers. Added staff handled documentation and delivery ceremonies without delays. Conversion rates are higher than last year’s festive period.

Analysts expect a strong quarter ahead. GST tailwinds, better consumer mood, and a broad portfolio should keep demand elevated through late 2025. With around 25,000 deliveries in this window, Tata marks its best Dhanteras run to date. It also signals further gains in market share in India’s growing passenger vehicle segment.

Analysis and insights:

Crossing 25,000 festive deliveries shows Tata’s deep reach with Indian buyers. Growth across ICE and EV proves a balanced strategy that meets today’s needs and prepares for tomorrow. Three things stand out: policy alignment that improves affordability, a portfolio that covers key price bands, and precise timing around auspicious purchase windows. This mix builds long‑term trust and steady scale. As supply stays stable and charging access improves, Tata’s EV share can rise without hurting its compact SUV strength. The approach feels practical, local, and future‑ready.
