Ashok Leyland achieves sales of 17,820 units in October 2025

Ashok Leyland has reported sales of 17,820 units in October 2025, according to the release of data by the company. The figure represents a rise of 16 percent on a year-on-year basis, against 15,310 units sold in October 2024. Growth is reflective of continued demand from many segments of the domestic commercial vehicle industry. 

Domestic Sales and Segment Details

Of the total volume, 16,314 units were sold in the domestic market, compared with 14,067 units a year earlier. Consistent freight movement and ongoing infrastructure development supported the increase. M&HCV posted 9,611 units against 8,437 units in the same period last year, up 14 percent. Heavy-duty truck sales in the M&HCV category were up 11 percent at 7,972 units from 7,208 units sold in the corresponding period last year. The LCV segment also grew to 6,703 units in October this year from 5,630 units sold in October 2024, up 19 percent on the back of steady demand in last-mile delivery and urban distribution networks.

Bus and Export Performance

The bus segment of the company increased 33 percent YoY from 1,229 units to 1,639 units in October 2025. Growth in this segment was attributed to renewed procurement by state transport undertakings and private institutions. Exports accounted for an estimated 1,506 units in the month, reflecting stable overseas demand from regions like Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

Industry Context and Contributing Factors

The broader India truck sales 2025 environment remained supportive during the period. The ongoing infrastructure spending, freight recovery and festive-season demand helped maintain momentum across the sector. Sales at Ashok Leyland have thus risen in line with trends among other manufacturers, particularly in the heavy-duty segment. Better fleet replacement cycles and improved financing conditions also helped to support purchase activity in the domestic market.

Ashok Leyland continued its focus on product development in the commercial vehicle segment. The efforts include diversification into vehicles propelled by alternate fuels like CNG, LNG and electricity. The Switch Mobility division of the firm remained engaged in the development of electric buses and light vehicles for domestic and export markets.

Telematics and fleet-management solutions are also being introduced gradually in order to improve operational efficiency for customers.

Market Outlook

Experts in the industry are forecasting that demand should remain steady in the second half of FY 2025–26 unless growth in infrastructure and consumption falters. The total commercial vehicle market in India is likely to sustain modest growth, driven by public sector spending and modernization of logistics. Ashok Leyland's October 2025 results suggest that a healthy share is reflected across multiple product categories rather than reliance on a single category. The figures could indicate that wider sector recovery should continue gradually. \
