On the back of simultaneous success across its brand new product portfolio including the Bajaj CT 100, the Bajaj Discover DTSi and the Bajaj Pulsar DTSi, Bajaj continues to grow sales at approximately twice the industry growth
rate for the 5th consecutive month. Market share in this period has thus increased from 23.1% to 29.3%.
In anticipation of the continuation of this all round success, Bajaj is expanding its motorcycle capacity to 200,000 units per month in 2005-06.
