April Auto Sales Live: Indian and foreign automakers have released their sales data for the month of April 2026 on Friday, May 1. Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki, Mahindra and Eicher Motors are among the companies that are in focus. The share prices of all auto majors will remain under investor's radar when stock markets open for regular trading on Monday, May 4.
Based on the average of brokerage reports, auto majors could report a strong finish to the financial year for two-wheelers, and post a steady momentum in passenger vehicles driven by expectations of an upcoming GST rate cut. However, the country's tractor sales may have cooled off after a strong FY26, reflecting seasonal softness and base effects.
