California does not currently publish sales data in a machine-readable format we can verify against official filings, so no sales series is shown — we don't estimate or model numbers the state hasn't reported. License counts and market news below are live, and this page picks up the series automatically if the state starts publishing.
What this number is: QUARTERLY retail sales reported by tax filers — never ranked against monthly states. Published by CDTFA open data portal (tax return data); files ~1 quarter behind. The current (incomplete) month is never shown.
