New Delhi: Helped by sustained rural demand after a bountiful monsoon, India’s largest two-wheeler maker Hero MotoCorp. Ltd posted its highest monthly sales ever in October.
Hero sold 625,000 units last month, an increase of 18.7% over the same month last year, the company said in a statement on Friday.
Its previous best was in May when it sold 557,000 units.
Anil Dua, senior vice-president (marketing and sales), said, “... our retail sales—which is a real barometer of customer response—has also set a new record. This sales momentum has been helped by our star brands Splendor and Passion and also by the new products."
A recently introduced five-year warranty also helped sales, Dua said.
“With Dhanteras and Diwali in November, we are prepared to maintain this retail momentum going forward," he said.
