Mumbai: Bajaj Auto Ltd’s fiscal fourth-quarter profit fell 15%, the steepest decline in 12 quarters, as motorcycle and three-wheeler sales in India fell because of a cash crunch following the government’s decision to scrap high-value banknotes and a switch to stricter vehicle emission norms.

Bajaj’s overseas motorcycle sales also fell because of economic and political uncertainties in export markets such as Nigeria and Sri Lanka.

India’s Bajaj Auto Ltd posted a 16 percent fall in March-quarter net profit, missing estimates, as a rise in input material cost and expenses on transition to BS-IV compliant vehicles hurt margins.

TVS Motor Company has roped in former Bajaj Auto's dealer in Central America for expansion in the region. The company expects around Rs 500 crore from Central America over the next three years.

CHENNAI: Bajaj Auto's decision to stay out of the scooter market has cost the company dear in terms of market share, both in the overall two-wheeler market as well as in the motorcycle segment.

Bajaj Auto sold 11% less vehicles in the month of March this year compared to the same period in 2016. According to a statement from the company, it sole 2,72,197 units in March 2017.

Leading Indian automobile companies are facing the impact of a recent credit squeeze from banks in neighboring export markets like Sri Lanka and Nepal. Those impacted include Maruti Suzuki, Renault, Nissan and Bajaj Auto among others.
