The stock rally did not halt there. In the past one week, the company added ~5,300 crore to its m-cap to touch a valuation of ~87,131 crore at the BSE when trading closed on Monday.

Eicher Motors, maker of Royal Enfield motorcycles, has overtaken Pune-headquartered Bajaj Auto in market capitalisation and become the highest valued Indian two-wheeler company. Eicher's stock rose about 2.6 per cent on Monday to a new high of of Rs 30,160 on the BSE exchange. The Gurgaon- headquartered company closed the day with a market cap of Rs 81,776 crore at the BSE, ahead of Bajaj Auto's Rs 81,242 crore. The country's largest two-wheeler maker, Hero MotoCorp, has one of Rs 72,971 crore. Eicher is a niche motorcycle maker, with significantly lower volumes than both Bajaj and Hero. Its revenue and profit is also the lowest of the three. Consolidated profit was Rs 1,667 crore in 2016-17, almost half of Hero's Rs 3,229 crore; Bajaj Auto's was Rs 4,079 crore. Yet, investors have remained bullish on Eicher, which also has a joint venture with Volvo to manufacture commercial vehicles. However, it is Royal Enfield that accounts for the lion's share in profit and drived the investors. .
