The wholesale volumes reported a growth of around 11.7%
in 5M-FY2026. Wholesale volumes are estimated to grow at a moderate pace of

wholesale and retail volumes grew by 11.7% YoY and 11.9% YoY, respectively, in

the TREM V emission norms, proposed to take effect from April 1, 2026, could
further aid volume growth

average (LPA) until September 17, 2025, albeit with an uneven spatial
