Tata Motors global sales flat at 80,499 vehicles in January

Tata Motors said on Tuesday it sold 80,499 vehicles, including Jaguar Land Rover, in January 2015 on a wholesale basis, unchanged from the same period a year ago. Cumulative wholesale so far this fiscal year stood at 794,017 vehicles, down 5 per cent, it said in a statement.

Global wholesales of all Tata Motors' commercial vehicles and Tata Daewoo range in January 2015 were 30,678 units, a growth of 2 per cent over January 2014. Cumulative commercial vehicles wholesales for this fiscal were 307,881 units, lower by 16 per cent, over last fiscal.   

Global wholesales of all passenger vehicles in January 2015 at 49,821 units, remained flat, compared to January 2014. Cumulative passenger vehicle wholesales for this fiscal were 486,136 units, a growth of 4 per cent, over last fiscal. 

Global wholesales of Tata Motors' passenger vehicles in January 2015 stood at 13,294 units, higher by 17 per cent, over January 2014. Cumulative wholesales for the fiscal were lower by 10 per cent at 108,291 units. 

Global wholesales for Jaguar Land Rover for the month were 36,527 vehicles, compared to 38,631 units in January 2014. The reduction is more than explained by the sales run out of the Land Rover Freelander model while retails of the new Land Rover Discovery Sport will start this month in some markets, Tata Motors said.

Jaguar wholesales for the month were 5,298 vehicles and cumulative wholesales were 61,716 vehicles, while Land Rover wholesales for the month were 31,229 vehicles and cumulative wholesales were 316,129 vehicles. Cumulative wholesales for Jaguar Land Rover for this fiscal were at 377,845 vehicles, higher by 9 per cent, over last fiscal.
