He said for the first time the company is seeing that rural areas are performing slightly better than urban markets.
He said improving road infrastructure and economic environment will drive demand for two-wheelers.
He said the two-wheeler sector has a huge opportunity in the medium and long term given the challenges in mobility as well as government investments on infrastructure and road development. According to KN Radhakrishnan, director and CEO of TVS Motor Company, the company plans to expand its electric vehicle sales in both developing and developed markets, betting big on India’s potential to emerge as a major export hub for electric two-wheelers. He told analysts that the company will leverage its plant in Indonesia to cater to other neighbouring markets in the ASEAN region, where it started selling its electric scooter TVS iQube last year.
