"In the Month of August 20, Hero Motocorp reported auto sale number ~7% yoy growth to 5,84,456 units which came in-line with our estimates. The company has reported domestic growth ~9%.
However, on the export front, the company reported de-growth of ~19%. Hero MotoCorp's latest addition to its range of premium motorcycles - the Xtreme 160R - has received very positive feedback from the market and has led to an increase in the company's premium segment market share. The Company is also witnessing strong retail off-take and is currently operating in the pull market with rural and semi-urban centers driving demand. We are positive on stock with a buy rating."
