India Yamaha Motor Pvt. Ltd. has announced that it has hit a major milestone by selling more than one lakh units in September 2016. The company also registered a growth of 33 per cent in domestic (including Nepal) sales in September 2016 as compared to the same period last year.
The company sold 89,423 units in September 2016 as against 67,267 units sold in the corresponding period last year in the domestic market (including Nepal), which amounts to 33 per cent in sales growth. Exports stood at 11,730 units (excluding Nepal) in September 2016.
Commenting on Company’s record growth, Mr. Roy Kurian, Vice President, Sales and Marketing at Yamaha Motor India Sales Pvt Ltd said, “September has been a historic month for Yamaha. The total number of sales in the market reached an all-time high, which is a direct reflection of constant faith of customers along with the immeasurable passion shown by the network partners.”
Commenting on future business projection, he said, “Yamaha’s sustained growth across segments has intensified its march towards the one million units mark and by 2017 Yamaha could hit the coveted number. The demand for scooters in rural markets will rapidly draw parallel to the urban figures and Yamaha will continue to drive its scooters in the non-urban markets for the rest of the year. The hike in the dispensable income among urban youngsters on the other hand, will exalt excitement in the higher segments where Yamaha has intensified its presence with the FZ series and the R Series.”
