No. 40 | 02nd November 2026: Growth outpaces electrification in India’s car market

India’s passenger vehicle market is electrifying, but catalysed vehicle sales  are still growing. BEVs reached a record 8.5% of passenger vehicle (PV)  registrations in September 2026, up from just 2.3% in April 2024, while  petrol/ethanol’s share fell from 53.3% to 41.3% over the same period.  However, much of the shift away from petrol has been towards other ICE  powertrains rather than directly to BEVs. CNG/LPG vehicles accounted for  23.1% of September registrations, hybrids 9.4% and diesel 17.7%, leaving  more than 91% of new PVs requiring an autocatalyst (source: FADA).
