Brand-Wise 2-Wheeler Sales Report: Hero MotoCorp scored the first position among all motorcycle brands of India, getting 7,16,059 buyers in the month of October 2018. The gap between Hero and Honda increased this month to around 2.25 lakh units, with the latter getting 4,90,135 units during the 31-day period. The gap between Honda and TVS has considerably gone down, with the third largest brand now getting 3,38,988 units in the last month. Even Bajaj Auto is scaling new height, posting 2,81,582 units in October 2018 and getting a good chunk of sales from both commuter and sportbike segment. A fraction of this sales figure belongs to KTM India.

They witnessed a fall in sales from the number registered last year, resulting in a 3.3% negative growth for the festive month. Royal Enfield got the sixth position with 70,044 buyers, struggling to get a bigger number as just 3% growth is not enough for the dream of selling a million bikes every year.
