Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) has reported a 49 per cent increase in sales at 14,378 units in April 2012.

It had sold 9,681 units in April last year, the company said in a statement.

Toyota Kirloskar Motor, a joint venture between the world’s largest carmaker Toyota and the Kirloskar Group, said that consumer sentiment does not appear to be positive.

“The Etios series, Innova and Fortuner continue to register growth in April. However, the market sentiments seem to be low with the enquiry levels having gone down across the industry,” the company Deputy Managing Director (Marketing), Mr Sandeep Singh, said.

Etios registered a 21 per cent growth at 5,624 units (4,657 units). The New Innova sold 6,582 units against 3,464 units, a growth of 90 per cent.

The New Fortuner sold 1,270 units, up 72 per cent over 739 units in the same month last year, while the Corolla Altis sold 881 units.
