India’s largest carmakers posted strong monthly sales numbers on Sunday, signalling that demand could be returning to the country’s ailing economy during the festival period. Maruti Suzuki, the country’s biggest automaker, said it sold 182,448 vehicles in October, an increase of nearly 19% over the same period last year. India’s second-largest carmaker Hyundai said that it recorded its highest-ever domestic sales last month, selling 56,605 vehicles.
