Bajaj Auto reports revival in export markets

Published on: 

Bajaj Auto is witnessing a strong revival  in various export markets, including Africa and Latin America, as  they were not hit as hard by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent  lockdowns as the domestic market, a senior company official said.

The company, which exports to around 79 countries globally, reported  its best ever dispatches to international markets last month.

"In terms of recovery, international business is doing better than  domestic because most of the countries where we export have not been  impacted that much by the pandemic and lockdowns as India," Bajaj  Auto CFO Soumen Ray told PTI in an interview.

The demand is very robust and various markets like Africa, Latin  America Middle East and South Asia are doing very well, he added.

 "We have only two areas of concern, one is ASEAN region where major  markets like the Philippines and Cambodia are witnessing lockdowns  and restrictions. Other is Sri Lanka, where the government has banned  import of vehicles," Ray said. Barring these two, the company is witnessing very strong revival, he added.
