The company had sold 3,29,847 units in the April-June quarter of FY25.

In May 2025, Tata Motors said it expects to maintain low single-digit growth in passenger vehicle sales this fiscal in line with the overall industry estimate, with the company betting on premium hatchback sales to bounce back with the introduction of its all-new version of Altroz.

The company is looking to regain 25% share in the premium hatchback segment, having seen it fall in the last one-and-a-half year, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicle Ltd and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd Managing Director Shailesh Chandra told PTI in an interview.

However, it has paused plans to introduce an electric version of the premium hatchback Altroz due to overcrowding in the price segment in which it was envisaged to be positioned, he said.

The all-new Altroz has been launched with introductory prices ranging from ₹6.89 lakh to ₹11.29 lakh across petrol, CNG and diesel variants.
