Maruti Suzuki India Ltd on Friday said it sold 98,840 vehicles in June, a negative growth of 13.9 per cent over 114,756 units sold in the same month last year.

The company recorded domestic sales of 92,133 vehicles and exports of 6,707 in June 2016 as against 102,626 and 12,130, respectively, in June 2015, said a Maruti Suzuki statement.

Barring the utility vehicle models like Ertiga, Gypsy, S-Cross, Vitara Brezza, Maruti Suzuki logged negative sales last month.

The company sold 9,708 units of utility vehicles last month as against 5,531 units sold in June 2015.
