The country's largest two-wheeler maker Hero Honda today reported a 16.13 per cent increase in its sales at 3,82,096 units last month, the best-ever reported by the company for the month of February.
The company had sold 3,29,005 units during the same month of last year, Hero Honda Motors (HHML) said in a statement.
HHML registered a cumulative sales of 41,85,492 units during the first 11 months of 2009-10, surpassing the target of 4 million units announced by the company earlier.
"Crossing the 4 million cumulative sales mark with a full month to go in the fiscal year is indeed heartening," HHML Senior Vice-President (Marketing and Sales) Anil Dua said.
In the April-February period of last fiscal, the company had sold 33,68,658 units.
Dua said the figure registered during February is the highest-ever sales in the month by the company.
