The two-wheeler major's total sales rose 1.92% to 462,608 units in August 2022 as against 453,879 units sold in August 2021.

Sequentially, this translates into a growth of 3.82% over the month of July 2022, when the company had sold 445,580 units.

In August 2022, the company's total domestic sales stood at 450,740 units (up 4.55% YoY) while total exports were at 11,868 units (down 47.81% YoY).

The company sold 430,799 units of motorcycles (up 2.42% YoY) and 31,809 units of scooters (down 4.39% YoY) during the period under review.

The company expects the momentum to build-up in the coming months on account of a combination of multiple factors, including a healthy growth in country's GDP, a normal festive season after a gap of two years, better monsoon resulting in decent agricultural harvest and positive consumer sentiments, the two-wheeler maker stated.
