BSA's India Return
The new joint venture company will help both manufacturers leverage the BSA brand and its legacy in the Indian market. Classic Legends is gearing up to introduce the iconic British manufacturer in India on August 15, 2024. The company will introduce its maiden offering, the BSA Gold Star 650, on the same day, which will compete head-on with the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 in the segment.
The move will also mark BSA’s return to the Indian market. The brand, in its new avatar, has been on sale in the UK since 2021 and is now making its way to the Indian market. The model is likely to be locally built which should keep prices competitive. More details on BSA's India return and availability will be available next week.
