The tally marks the largest first-half sales figure for Hyundai Motor in the country, reports Yonhap news agency.
Hyundai Motor's investor relations data also showed that Hyundai's Indian plant sold a total of 259,659 units locally from January to May.
According to the FADA, Hyundai's market share in the Indian passenger vehicle market for the first half stood at 13.8%, ranking second behind Maruti Suzuki.
Tata Motors ranked third, followed by Toyota Motor and Kia.
Hyundai has shown a constant share decrease in India in the past few years, from 17% in 2021 to 14.1% by 2023.
Last month, the company announced that its Indian unit has filed for an IPO in India as it seeks to gain a strong foothold in the country's fast-growing auto market.
Industry observers are keen on whether the company can enhance its local competitiveness through the listing on the Indian stock market.
India serves as a key global production base for the Korean automotive giant. Last year, Hyundai produced a total of 765,000 vehicles in India.
