The Government of India’s GST reform has further enhanced accessibility for motorcycles under 350cc, as reflected in the strong customer demand."

As we progress, our dedication to long-term value creation remains firm, driven by customer-centric innovation, global aspirations, and meaningful brand experiences at every level," he added.
