Two-wheeler sales surge 21% in November
In November, the sale of two-wheelers in India went up by 21% compared to the same month last year.
Most big companies like Hero MotoCorp, Honda, and Suzuki saw a lot more sales.
Hero MotoCorp sold the most, with a 30% increase, thanks to popular models like Splendor, Xtreme, and HF Deluxe.
Bajaj Auto was the only one that saw a small drop in sales.
Experts say this growth happened because of things like tax benefits, a good economy, more people in rural areas buying two-wheelers, and the festive season.
The new models from Hero MotoCorp also helped a lot.
Commuters prefer these bikes because they are reliable, have low running costs, and offer good service support.
