Festive demand drives up August two-wheeler sales

Wholesale units grow 7% on year
MOTORCYCLE AND SCOOTER dispatches to dealers rose for the second consecutive month in August as manufacturers bet on an expected surge in demand in the upcoming festive period.
Sales of six two-wheeler brands, which control about 95% of the domestic market, clocked a 7% year-on-year rise in volumes during August to 1.74 million units.
A bountiful monsoon, which should augur well for the rural retail demand, is one of the reasons for the rise in sales.
The increase in volumes in August comes despite the possibility of a cut in the goods and services tax (GST) to 18% from 28% on two-wheelers expected this month.
