Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI), a leading name in the Indian two-wheeler industry, achieved a remarkable sales performance in September 2025, selling a total of 5,68,164 units. This reflects a solid 5.44 percent year-on-year (YOY) growth compared to 5,38,852 units sold in September 2024. The companyโs strong performance was driven by robust domestic demand and a significant surge in exports, reinforcing Hondaโs position as a market leader.
Domestic and Export Sales Breakdown
In September 2025, Hondaโs domestic sales reached 5,05,693 units, marking a 2.85 percent YOY increase and a 6 percent month-on-month (MOM) growth compared to 5,34,861 units sold in August 2025. Exports contributed 62,471 units, accounting for 11 percent of total sales and showcasing an impressive 32.43 percent YOY growth from 47,174 units exported in September 2024. This strong export performance highlights Hondaโs growing presence in international markets.
Year-to-Date Performance
For the April to September 2025 period (FY2026), HMSI recorded total sales of 29,91,024 units, including 26,79,507 domestic units and 3,11,517 exported units. While this represents a 3.94 percent YOY decline compared to 31,13,596 units sold in the same period of FY2025, the dip was primarily due to a slowdown in domestic sales. However, the robust growth in exports helped offset this decline, demonstrating Hondaโs ability to balance domestic and international demand.
