Bajaj Auto maintained a very firm grip on the second position. The company moved 40,378 units last month. This represents a healthy 4.33 percent monthly growth. Like TVS, Bajaj’s e-scooter lineup revolves around the iconic Chetak nameplate. Over time, Bajaj has made several changes to the Chetak portfolio with the latest being, new Chetak C25, C30, and C35 series. The budget friendly Chetak 3001 variant also plays a crucial role. It excels at bringing new customers straight into their showrooms.
Ather Energy Sales For July 2026
Ather secured the third spot on the sales charts. They delivered 27,448 scooters in July. Unlike the top two players, Ather faced a slight 5.63 percent decline compared to their June numbers. The brand is currently transitioning its sales strategy. While the sporty 450X remains a popular choice for enthusiasts, Ather is now betting heavily on the family oriented Rizta scooter. The brand will also be announcing its first mass-market electric scooter at its upcoming community event in August, which is expected to make a notable dent in the Indian e-scooter market.
Hero Vida Sales For July 2026
