Hero Splendor continued to reign supreme ahead of Honda Shine, Bajaj Pulsar, Hero HF Deluxe and TVS Apache in July 2025 sales table
Hero MotoCorp continued to dominate the Indian two-wheeler market in July 2025 with the Splendor at the top of the charts. The commuter workhorse recorded 2,46,715 units, up 11.73 per cent from July 2024, proving once again why it remains the backbone of India’s motorcycle sales. Its affordability, fuel economy and wide dealer network has helped it retain the number one spot for years.
In second place, the Honda Shine managed 1,59,658 units, though sales dipped slightly by 2.29 per cent year-on-year. Despite the small decline, the Shine remains a strong choice in the entry-level segment – appealing to riders looking for refinement and reliability. Honda will be hoping to turn this minor slide around in the coming months with likely discounts during this festive season.
Bajaj’s Pulsar series finished in the third position with a domestic tally of 79,817 units. It marks a significant 16.67 per cent decline compared to last year’s 95,789 units. While the Pulsar name still carries weight, competition has certainly intensified in the 125 cc to 200 cc category in recent times in India.
