HMSI crosses 1 crore two-wheeler sales in east India

The April performance comes shortly after HMSI crossed the cumulative sales milestone of 1 crore units in eastern India earlier in April 2026. States such as West Bengal, Bihar, Odisha, Jharkhand and the north-eastern region have emerged as major contributors to overall sales volumes over the years.

Cities including Kolkata, Patna, Ranchi, Bhubaneswar and Guwahati have accounted for a huge chunk of this growth, with commuters continuing to drive demand. The company has also benefited from increasing first-time buyers and customers upgrading to more premium commuter-focused offerings in these markets.

HMSI’s scooter and commuter bike portfolio continues to form the backbone of its sales performance in the region. Models such as the Activa and Dio remain among the company’s strongest-selling scooters, while motorcycles including the Shine 125 and SP125 contribute significantly to overall volumes.
