General Motors India today reported 26.78% decline in its sales for September this year at 7,403 units.

The company had sold 10,112 units in September 2011, General Motors India said in a statement.

The company sold 254 units of small car Spark, 4,539 units of hatchback Beat and 320 units of sedan Cruze last month.

It also sold 2,136 units of multi-purpose vehicle Tavera during the month.

The company did not share the sales numbers of its models Aveo, Optra and Captiva.

Commenting on the sales performance, General Motors India Vice President P Balendran said, "The sales are not on expected lines as the overall market continues to remain sluggish due to increase in fuel prices, negative market sentiment and various other factors. However, we expect the market to show some improvement closer to the festive season."
