Toyota Kirloskar Motor today reported a 23.43 per cent decrease in its domestic car sales at 12,756 units in February 2013.
The company sold 16,659 units in the corresponding month of the previous year, Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) said in a statement.
During the month, the company exported 1,223 units of the Etios series to South Africa, and hence the total sales registered in February this year stood at 13,979 units.
Commenting on the numbers, TKM Deputy Managing Director and COO (Marketing and Commercial) Sandeep Singh said: “The market continues to remain sluggish and with the additional excise duty levied on SUVs and UVs, the market will be further impacted.”
