"Our domestic sales continue to be strong for our premium segment products like YZF-R15, Fazer, FZ-S and FZ-16. These models have also received overwhelming response in overseas markets like Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Columbia resulting in increased export sales," India Yamaha Motor Chief Executive Officer and MD Yukimine Tsuji said.
The company is expecting to sell 3.1 lakh units in the domestic market and is aiming to more than double its exports to 1.5 lakh units this year, he added.
