SUV sales also increased 56% during the same period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Exports Also Reach Record Levels<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maruti&#8217;s export business continues to expand alongside domestic demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company exported 44,219 vehicles in September, an increase of around 5% compared with the same month last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exports during the first half of FY27 reached a record 2.32 lakh vehicles, representing 12.2% year-on-year growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maruti said it accounted for around 52% of India&#8217;s total passenger vehicle exports between April and August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Baleno Also Gets Strong Response<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The refreshed Maruti Baleno has also received a strong response from customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The model recorded sales of 25,000 units during its first month after the update, adding further pressure to Maruti&#8217;s production and supply network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With multiple models seeing increased demand simultaneously, the company is focusing on expanding output before the festive season reaches its peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Festive Demand Expected To Remain Strong<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maruti expects demand to remain healthy during the festive period despite concerns around rainfall deficits in parts of the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the company expects the industry&#8217;s growth rate during the second half of FY27 to be lower than the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Maruti, the key challenge will be converting strong bookings into actual deliveries. Increased production at Kharkhoda and improved supply availability will therefore be crucial in reducing the current backlog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maruti Suzuki is ramping up production as its customer booking backlog crosses 2 lakh ahead of the festive season. The Brezza 2026 accounts for nearly 95,000 bookings and is approaching the 1 lakh mark. Maruti is increasing output at its Kharkhoda plant while September domestic sales rose 30%. Exports also reached a record 2.32 lakh vehicles during H1 FY27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maruti Faces More Than 2 Lakh Pending Bookings Maruti Suzuki is increasing vehicle production ahead of the festive season as its pending customer bookings have crossed the 2 lakh mark.
