Sales performance snapshot

The year-on-year comparison highlights a significant volume jump for the month of August 2026. The table below captures the key sales figures:

Domestic vs export split

The growth was driven primarily by domestic demand. Sales of small commercial vehicles (SCV), light commercial vehicles (LCV), utility vehicles (UV) and sports utility vehicles (SUV) in the domestic market rose 62.14% YoY to 3,721 units, up from 2,295 units in August 2025.

In contrast, export volumes contracted. Export sales for the same vehicle categories fell 25% YoY to 81 units, down from 108 units in the prior-year period.

What the numbers show

The 58.22% YoY rise in total sales volume represents a notable acceleration for Force Motors. The absolute addition of approximately 1,399 units over the prior-year August figure underscores the scale of the improvement in dispatches during the period. The divergence between domestic growth and export contraction indicates that the overall performance was heavily reliant on the Indian market, where domestic sales accounted for 97.9% of total volumes in August 2026.
