GENERAL Motors India June sales dipped 9.7 per cent to 2,183 units, against 2,418 cars in the same month last year, as unprecedented rains and floods in Baroda disrupted production and dispatches towards the month-end.

"We lost sales of around 300 units as rains and floods hit our production and dispatches towards the month-end," the GM India Vice-President (Marketing and Sales), Mr Amit Dutta, said in a statement.

Sales during June included 1,461 Taveras, 404 Chevrolet Optra, 315 Opel Corsas and three units of the imported Forester SUV.

During the first half of 2005, GM India sales registered year-on-year growth of over 42 per cent to 15,297 units compared to 10,737 in the first six months of 2004.

Sales included 9,703 units of Tavera, 3,638 Optra, 1,932 Corsa and 24 Foresters.
