This ‘Dhanteras’ the country’s second largest two-wheeler manufacturer has recorded sales of 1.65 lakh units, which is an increase of 110 per cent from its last year’s sales in the same day. The company hopes that this momentum in sales will continue pushing their charts higher for the complete month of October.

Honda had not expected such an amazing response and thus stocks of the Dream series was finished by mid-day in many dealerships.
Automatic scooters have been HMSI’s key selling products, in fact the Activa is one of the largest selling two-wheeler in the country. The demand for automatic scooters has also remained to be so high that most dealerships ran out of stock by evening.
