"We continued our growth momentum in December on the back of robust sales, led by positive response for the Tata Tiago. This has resulted in planned stock reduction in the network," Tata Motors President, Passenger Vehicle Business, Mayank Pareek said in a statement.
The company also saw good traction on retail sales towards the end of the month, he added.
"The new year holds tremendous opportunity for further growth as we enhance our product line-up with a slew of new models," Pareek said.
