Hero MotoCorp expects the ongoing festival season to be "one of the best" in terms of sales, helping it maintain leadership position in the domestic two-wheeler segment this year as well, according to a senior company executive.

Two-wheeler maker Hero MotoCorp on Wednesday said it will cut prices of its various models by up to Rs 15,743 to pass on the full benefit of the GST rate reduction to customers. The new pricing will be effective from September 22, Hero MotoCorp said in a regulatory filing.
