10. Unofficial Bookings

    • Before the official booking date, some Tata dealers are already collecting token “unofficial bookings” to gauge demand.

    • These are not central bookings by Tata — so buyers should check refund terms, cancellation, and whether the booking is “official” or just an “expression of interest.” 

Implications & What It Means for Buyers

• High Demand Likely: Given the nostalgia factor (Sierra was an iconic name) + modern design + strong feature list, demand is expected to be strong. Booking early (on 16 Dec) could help you secure a spot.

• Waiting Period: Even though deliveries start in mid-January, there might be waiting times depending on the variant and how many bookings come in. CarDekho suggests a possible 1–2 month wait for some variants. 

• Booking Strategy:

  • If you want to be safe: Book through official channels (Tata website or dealership) when official bookings open.

  • If you're okay with some risk: You could make an unofficial booking earlier, but verify all the terms (refund, conversion to official booking, etc.).

• Refund / Cancellation: Important to check what happens if you cancel — especially for pre-bookings made at dealer level.

• Variant Selection: Decide beforehand which powertrain / variant you want (NA petrol vs turbo vs diesel), because popular variants will likely run out quickly.
