Emkay, in a recent report, said that two-wheeler recovery continues to broaden with strong rural support. Hero MotoCorp reported the best-ever festive period with a 19 per cent growth in retail volumes, backed by improving rural demand. ICRA also echoed the same sentiment. “There was robust growth in two-wheeler retails, aided by festive cheer and marriage season.”
