Khyati Sharma 2026-09-04

Bajaj Auto continued its strong sales momentum in August 2026, with the company's two-wheeler business witnessing substantial growth across both domestic and international markets. The company sold 4,43,748 two-wheelers during the month, compared with 3,41,887 units in August 2025, representing a 30% year-on-year increase.

The biggest contributor to this performance was Bajaj's export business. Overseas shipments increased significantly during the month, highlighting the company's strong presence across international markets.

Domestic Two-Wheeler Sales Grow 10%

Bajaj Auto's domestic two-wheeler sales also remained positive in August. The company recorded 2,01,898 units in the Indian market, compared with 1,84,109 units during the same month last year.

This translates into a 10% year-on-year increase, indicating continued demand for Bajaj's motorcycle portfolio in the domestic market.

The growth comes ahead of the important festive season, when motorcycle and scooter demand traditionally receives a boost. Stronger consumer activity during this period could provide further support to two-wheeler sales in the coming months.

Exports Become a Major Growth Driver

Bajaj Auto's international business delivered an even stronger performance. The company exported 2,41,850 two-wheelers in August 2026, compared with 1,57,778 units in August 2025.

This represents a 53% year-on-year increase, with overseas shipments rising by more than 84,000 units in a single month.

Interestingly, Bajaj's exports were higher than its domestic two-wheeler volumes during August. International shipments accounted for more than half of the company's total two-wheeler sales for the month.

Overall Bajaj Auto Sales Increase 28%

Bajaj Auto's strong two-wheeler performance also helped lift its overall sales during the month. Including commercial vehicles, the company sold 5,35,764 units in August 2026, compared with 4,17,616 units in August 2025.

Overall sales therefore increased by 28% year-on-year. Domestic sales across two-wheelers and commercial vehicles reached 2,55,708 units, up 10% compared with the corresponding period last year.

Commercial Vehicle Business Also Delivers Growth

Bajaj's Export Business Remains a Key Strength

The August numbers underline the increasing importance of international markets to Bajaj Auto's overall business. While domestic two-wheeler sales recorded a healthy 10% increase, exports grew more than five times faster at 53%.

Bajaj's wide international footprint gives the company an important advantage as demand conditions vary between individual markets. The strong export performance also helped push the company's total two-wheeler volumes significantly higher during the month.

Strong Start to FY2026-27

Bajaj Auto has also maintained strong momentum during the first five months of the current financial year. Between April and August 2026, the company sold 20,55,019 two-wheelers, marking a 29% increase over the same period last year.

Domestic two-wheeler sales increased 12% to 9,54,192 units, while exports climbed 50% to 11,00,827 units.

What the August Performance Means for Bajaj

Bajaj Auto's August 2026 performance presents a positive picture for the company's two-wheeler business. Domestic demand remained healthy, while the much stronger export performance provided the biggest boost to overall volumes.

With the festive season approaching, the company will be looking to maintain this momentum in the domestic market. At the same time, continued growth in overseas shipments could remain an important pillar of Bajaj Auto's sales performance through the remainder of FY2026-27.

Overall, Bajaj Auto's August results highlight a strong combination of domestic recovery and rapidly expanding international demand, with two-wheeler exports emerging as the biggest growth driver
