      Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), the country's largest passenger car maker, has announced its gross sales figures of passenger cars and Utility Vehicles (UV) in Mumbai on September 1, 2012. MSIL sold 54,154 vehicles during August 2012, against the 91,442 vehicles, which were sold during the same period last year. Also, the sales recorded in August this year included 4,025 vehicles exported by the company.

      The in-operation of Manesar facility, between July 21 and August 20 this year, affected MSIL severely and the production of company's flagship products such as Swift, DZire, SX4 and A-star vehicles suffered. However, the company's customers remained loyal and the sales of other models remained strong. The unified sales recorded during July and August this year stood at 145,087 vehicles and witnessed a rise of 6.7 per cent against the corresponding period last year.

      For August 2012, MSIL's whole sales figures are mentioned in a tabular from below:
