Hero MotoCorp Sales May 2022

Hero MotoCorp has reported a 165.89 percent YoY growth in May 2022 with an increase in domestic sales but de-growth in terms of exports

Hero MotoCorp, the world’s largest two wheeler maker has had a successful month of May 2022. Sales volumes increased substantially thanks to improvements in buyer sentiments and increased rural purchase backed by predictions of normal monsoon. Support by way of Government policies with the recent reduction in excise duty on petrol and diesel which has resulted in lower cost of fuel, has also brought relief to two wheeler owners

Hero MotoCorp sold a total of 4,86,704 units in May 2022. This was a YoY growth of 165.89 percent over 1,83,044 units sold in May 2021.
