Q3 FY26 deliveries were only 32,680 units. With one quarter remaining in H2 FY26, achieving approximately 100,000 H2 deliveries would require roughly 67,320 units in Q4, more than double the Q3 quarterly volume. Management also declined to provide a timing target for reaching the 15,000-unit monthly breakeven level. (2 missed, 1 met, 2 in progress across 5 tracked commitments)

“We are working towards rebuilding national market share to 15–20% over the next six months, supported by service stability, stronger sales execution, Roadster ramp-up and better store productivity.”
