MUMBAI : Commercial vehicle (CV) manufacturer Ashok Leyland Ltd has reported total domestic sales of 1,277 units in May, thereby recording a sharp drop of 90% year-on-year, on losing about two weeks last month due to the pandemic-induced lockdown.
After reporting nil sales in April, the company had, on 13 May, notified that it resumed operations across all of its production units after obtaining necessary approvals from the local authorities.
Ashok Leyland had sold 12,778 units in May last year. The company’s domestic wholesales for the last month included 1,126 units of the light commercial vehicles (LCVs) and 151 units of the medium and heavy trucks or MHCVs.
