The commercial vehicle business performed well in the year to date sales but could not revive the overall sales.

Bajaj recently introduced the Pulsar RS200 and will soon extend its product portfolio with new Pulsar family. Addition of these new motorcycles should help Bajaj clock better sales in the coming days.
