JSW MG Motor India reported an improvement in sales in March 2026, ending the month on a positive note. The company recorded wholesales of 6,528 units, registering a growth of 19% year-on-year (YoY) as compared to 5,501 units sold in March 2025. On a month-on-month (MoM) basis, MG recorded a strong recovery with 31% growth compared to 4,957 units sold in February 2026.
A highlight of MG’s performance is the growing dominance of electric vehicles in its overall sales mix. EV sales stood at 5,623 units, accounting for the bulk of the total volume and registering a growth of 20.4% year-on-year. In comparison, ICE models contributed 905 units, growing at a slower pace of 8.9% year-on-year. The MoM trend further highlights this shift, with EV sales increasing by 54% while ICE sales have declined by 31%, indicating a clear shift towards electrification.
MG’s portfolio includes ICE models like Astor, Hector, Hector Plus and the soon to be launched Magister as well as EVs like Comet EV, Windsor EV and ZS EV. The brand has also expanded into the premium segment with the M9 electric MPV and the Cyberstar electric sports car. Looking ahead, MG is preparing to introduce its first plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) in India around August-September 2026.

ZS EV sales stood at 411 units, showing improvement on both YoY and MoM basis. Astor recorded 55 units, although this was a decline compared to the previous month.
Future plans and EV focus
After consistent sales growth, MG Motor India is planning to further expand its portfolio. This includes the upcoming MG Starlight SUV, which is expected to be offered with both EV and PHEV powertrain options. Once launched, it will take on rivals like Mahindra XUV700 and Tata Harrier.
With EVs accounting for a larger share in overall sales and registering significantly higher growth than ICE models, MG Motor India is steadily transforming as an EV-led brand in the Indian market. The company’s future growth will largely depend on how well it takes advantage of this strong momentum in the electric vehicle sector.
