With 2,61,833 units sold, Hero Splendor bagged the title of being the highest-selling 2W of India. When compared to 2,08,263 Splendors sold a year ago, 25.72% YoY growth was achieved with 53,570 units gained in volume YoY. Out of this list, Splendor alone holds a 31.50% market share.

Activa came 2nd with 1,30,001 units. This is almost half of what Hero Splendor managed. That is a 9.24% YoY decline. A pattern which resonated with 3rd highest-seller CB Shine from Honda. With 99,878 units sold, Shine couldn’t beat the 1,05,159 units sold a year ago. Hence the 5.02% YoY decline. The market share of Activa and CB Shine was 15.64% and 12.02% respectively.
In 4th place, we have the Bajaj Pulsar series. Bajaj sold 84,279 Pulsars last month and easily surpassed 66,839 Pulsars sold a year ago. YoY growth was 26.09% with 17,440 Pulsars gained in volume YoY and 10.14% market share. With Pulsar 220F launch soon, this number should go higher in coming months.
