Bajaj domestic two-wheeler sales rise 8.33% in August as Chetak jumps 272.83% to offset Pulsar, Platina declines
Our read
Chetak keeps Bajaj's domestic growth positive through the festive season, but Pulsar and Platina stay in decline and need further discounts.
For operators
Chetak's jump of 272.83% to 52,248 units while Pulsar fell 9.33% to 97,839 and Platina dropped 30.97% means showroom traffic is moving toward electric, so dealers should rebalance floor space, demo scooters and staff training, and use the festive benefits of up to Rs 12,000 on select Pulsar models to clear motorcycle stock.
Watch
Bajaj's September domestic two-wheeler sales against the 1,85,302 August figure
The report,
Bajaj Auto sold 1,85,302 domestic two-wheelers in August 2026, up 8.33% from 1,71,049 a year earlier. Chetak rose 272.83% to 52,248 units, offsetting declines in Pulsar (9.33%) and Platina (30.97%). Bajaj is offering festive benefits of up to Rs 12,000 on select Pulsar models.
What to track next
- Chetak monthly units holding above or falling back from 52,248
- Pulsar volumes versus 97,839, and whether the decline narrows once the Rs 12,000 benefits apply
- Platina's trend after the 30.97% fall, and any new entry-level offers
- Festive-season retail registration data and rival electric scooter pricing moves
