The Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA) has appointed Shailender Luthra as its Delhi state chairperson. Luthra is a director at Brite Autowheels and is based in Delhi, with dealerships for Skoda, Nissan and Royal Enfield.
FADA announced the appointment alongside the release of vehicle retail data for Delhi for August 2026. The state recorded total retail sales of 72,983 vehicles during the month, up 18.42 percent from 61,631 units in August 2025.
Delhi Vehicle Retail Data For August 2026
Two-wheeler retail in Delhi increased 25.64 percent year on year to 51,126 units in August 2026, compared with 40,694 units in the same month last year. Passenger vehicle retail rose 30.16 percent to 17,506 units from 13,450 units.
Commercial vehicle retail increased 9.99 percent to 2,247 units from 2,043 units, while three-wheeler retail declined 61.46 percent to 2,098 units from 5,443 units. Tractor retail stood at six units, compared with one unit in August 2025.
Commenting on the August performance, Luthra said two-wheeler retail growth in Delhi was 25.6 percent, compared with 19.7 percent nationally. He attributed the increase to product acceptability, improved supplies, festive-season momentum and higher market activity, while noting that weakness in EV demand remained a constraint.
