Market Reaction and Industry Response
No separate market reaction or trade-body comment was found in the source. Autocar India noted that nearly all manufacturers reported healthy increases in the festive season. It also flagged reporting differences: TVS lists its iQube and Orbiter electric scooter sales separately, so they are not in its figure, while Bajaj’s figure includes sub-400cc Triumph and KTM models and its Chetak electric scooter.
What Happens Next?
Diwali falls in November, so the festive buying period continues. November numbers will show whether the October volume level holds, particularly for Hero MotoCorp, which edged down slightly from September.
