What Bajaj does

Bajaj Auto Ltd is an Indian publicly-listed manufacturer (NSE/BSE: BAJAJ AUTO) of two-wheelers, three-wheelers, and quadricycles, headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra, and operating since 1945 as part of the Bajaj Group conglomerate. The company's core product portfolio spans motorcycles from 100cc to 400cc under its own brands (Pulsar, Dominar, Avenger, Freedom, Platina, CT), the Chetak electric scooter, an electric and CNG three-wheeler range (WEGO, RIKI, RE, Maxima, plus the Qute quadricycle), and licensed premium motorcycles from KTM and Triumph. Technical differentiation rests on proprietary systems such as DTS-i (Digital Twin Spark ignition), the world's first CNG motorcycle (Freedom 125, launched July 2024), an electric scooter platform with Google Maps integration, and an in-house R&D base of approximately 1,500 engineers. The company claims to be the world's most valuable two- and three-wheeler company and the world's No.1 three-wheeler manufacturer.

Bajaj Auto generates revenue almost entirely through unit hardware sales across motorcycle, three-wheeler, electric vehicle, and quadricycle categories, with pricing tiered from ₹68,711 for the entry-level Platina 100 to ₹1,82,174 for the Pulsar NS400z (ex-showroom Delhi). Go-to-market relies on a pan-India authorized dealer network, an online booking portal, the in-house Avail Finance platform, and a dedicated international business division exporting to 108 countries at approximately 250,000 vehicles per month. Customer segments split between retail consumers (mass-market commuters, premium enthusiasts, CNG buyers) and B2B fleet operators including logistics companies such as Delhivery. Q4 FY26 standalone revenue reached ₹16,005.65 crore (up 31.8% year-on-year) with net profit of ₹2,746.13 crore (up 34%), and May 2026 sales totaled 461,257 vehicles across domestic and export channels.

The strategic posture centers on three reinforcing vectors: premiumization through the completed KTM acquisition and Triumph partnership, electrification across Chetak scooters and WEGO/RIKI three-wheelers (where Bajaj leads India's electric three-wheeler market), and global export expansion (exports up 30% YoY in May 2026). Recent structural moves include the formation of two wholly-owned subsidiaries — Bajaj Auto Technology Ltd for R&D and Bajaj Auto Credit Ltd for EV financing — and the largest-ever share buyback of ₹5,632.8 crore in June 2026, reflecting strong cash generation. A ransomware incident disclosed in June 2026 was contained with no manufacturing disruption.
