Motilal Oswal Report

Hero MotoCorp Ltd. has posted a notable operating performance in these tough times. The narrative around rural demand is positive, but supply chain ramp-up and broad-base demand are important for demand sustainability.

The management is quite confident of market share gains in Q1 sustaining, driven by rural buoyancy, response to BS6 products, a refreshed portfolio (Passion, Glamour), and the plugging of product gaps (scooters and premium).

Operations have recovered to 80–90% of pre-Covid-19 levels, and would fully normalize in the coming months as it looks to build inventory for the festive season. 95% of its dealers are fully operational.
