Riding on strong demand for its products, Hero MotoCorp on Tuesday said it clocked sales of six lakh units of two-wheelers in September.
This is a growth of over 30 per cent over the corresponding month last year, when it sold 4,68,670 units, the company said in a statement.
“As despatches will continue till midnight of Tuesday, the final tally for the month is expected to be much higher,” it said.
The company said it also registered retail sales of over 1.7 lakh units during the first six days (September 25–30) of the ongoing Navaratri festival, a growth of over 5 per cent over the same period last year.
Hero MotoCorp has crossed the figure of over six lakh in monthly sales in only two previous occasions – in October 2013, when it sold 6.25 lakh units, and in May 2014, when it sold 6.02 lakh units of two-wheelers, it said.
“To generate further excitement for customers, Hero MotoCorp has lined up over 10 new product launches, including refreshes and variants, which will reach dealerships across the country during the festival season,” it added.
