The growth in the domestic market was aided by an improvement in overall market sentiment and robust demand for our range of two-wheelers. Hero’s Global Business team has been engaged in brand building and customer engagement initiatives, which has resulted in multiple Latin American and Asian markets also reporting encouraging growth during the quarter.”
