This July, the company has posted a year-on-year growth of 49 per cent with a cumulative 40,760 units of Royal Enfield motorcycles sold in India and abroad. While domestic sales have gone up from 26,796 units in July 2014 to 39,867 units in July 2015 – itself a 49 per cent growth – exports have grown by a whopping 72 per cent from the 518 units of July 2014 to 893 this July.
