Royal Enfield reported its highest-ever monthly sales in September 2025, with total dispatches reaching 1,24,328 units. This marks a 43 percent increase compared to the same month last year, when the company sold 86,978 motorcycles. The growth comes in the backdrop of the GST 2.0 implementation, which brought down prices of motorcycles under the 350cc category, a segment where Royal Enfield has a strong presence.
For the April–September 2025 period, Royal Enfield’s year-to-date performance also showed robust gains. Total sales during the first six months of the financial year reached 5,91,903 units, up 30 percent compared to 4,54,780 units in the same period of FY2024–25.
Within this, domestic sales contributed 5,21,482 units, an increase of 27 percent over 4,10,843 units last year. Exports accounted for 70,421 units during the period, significantly higher than the 43,937 units shipped in the first half of the previous year, representing a 60 percent growth.
September’s numbers also highlight the impact of the ongoing festive season, which traditionally brings higher sales volumes for two-wheeler manufacturers. With the new tax structure making sub-350cc motorcycles more affordable, Royal Enfield appears to have benefited directly, consolidating its position in a competitive market.
Highlights for September 2025
Royal Enfield crossed the 1 lakh retail volume threshold for the month for the first time in its history.
The company also organized the annual One Ride event globally, promoting camaraderie and riding culture, which supported strong brand engagement.
