Except Maruti Suzuki, Tata and Kia, all brands have faced negative month-on-month growth in April 2023

In April 2023, the new BS6 phase 2 emission norms came into effect due to which some carmakers increased the prices of a few of their offerings. However, when it came to sales, only three carmakers – Maruti, Tata and Kia – were able to register a positive month-on-month growth in April.
