Maruti Udyog Limited said on Tuesday it has sold over two lakh units of its entry level hatchback Alto during last 11 months.

The company said these are the highest sales figures for any car model in the domestic market during a fiscal, MUL said in a statement.

"Of this, one lakh sales have come in just five months," it said. In October last year, Alto sold around 22,294 units and the company has sold over 6.25 lakh units in the domestic market since its launch in September 2000.

The company has also exported 1.25 lakh units since the launch, the statement said.

Maruti has been introducing several variants of Alto to cater to the demands of entry level buyers.

A limited edition Alto in April 2003, a face-lift in July 2005 and a special edition Alto X-fun edition to coincide with 5 lakh sales in November 2006 were introduced by the company, it added.
