The company had sold 25,717 units during the same month a year ago, it said in a statement.

"We have received a good response from the market for all our products. The growing customer satisfaction has led to positive word-of-mouth in the market," said Atul Gupta, Executive Vice-President at SMIL.

"Building on the existing goodwill in the market, we expect that the four products launched at the Auto Expo – Gixxer, Let’s, V Strom and Inazuma will also show good performance in the upcoming fiscal," he added.
