Motorcycles

 

In FY2012, Bajaj Auto sold over 3.83 million motorcycles in India and abroad. In doing so, it grew sales by 13.2% over FY2011, which was lower than in the previous two years. However, as mentioned earlier, sales growth was muted for the industry as a whole, which grew by 13.7% versus over 24% in the last couple of years. Thus, despite lower growth, Bajaj Auto held on to a share of over 32%.

 

India

 

In India, the Company sold 2,566,757 motorcycles during FY2012. That was 6.3% higher than the sales in the previous year. As mentioned earlier, FY2012 has been a year of lower growth for the domestic economy, with almost all sectors reporting subdued numbers. Sale of motorcycles in India was no exception. After two good quarters, sales growth fell very sharply in Q3 FY2012 and Q4 FY2012, to eventually clock 11.9% in FY2012, versus 22.9% last year. 

 

Both urban and rural markets were affected by high consumer interest rates, increasing petrol  prices and overall inflation. Even the 11.9% growth was severely skewed across quarters as well as segments. Sales of models belonging to the upper end Performance segment remained flat year-on-year. With a substantial proportion of Bajaj Auto’s business coming from the Performance segment, the Company’s sales growth by volume was more muted at 6%.

 

As evidenced in the first two months of ongoing financial year 2012-13, the growth continues to be muted. Industry growth for H1/FY2013 is expected to be in the range of 6-7% only. However, we expect an acceleration in growth in the second half of the fiscal year 2012-13.

 

The good news is that Bajaj Auto continues to dominate the performance segment. It sold 716,267 motorcycles in this segment in FY2012, with a market share of 44%. This, despite the segment being most hotly contested by every major two-wheeler company with a large number of models fighting for market share.

 

The Company’s key brand in this segment, Pulsar, is now into its 10th year. Pulsar is the only brand in the Performance segment whose cumulative sales have crossed the 5 million mark.

 

To increase the momentum in the Performance segment, Bajaj Auto unveiled the next generation Pulsar 200 NS in January 2012. Pulsar 200 NS is expected to re-define motorcycling just as the original Pulsars did in 2001.

 

To dominate the high end, Bajaj Auto launched the KTM Duke 200 in January 2012. Known for their legendary racing achievements, KTM is Europe’s second largest motorcycle manufacturer and dominates the off-road segment across the world. The first offering from the KTM stable in India, the Duke 200, is being retailed through dedicated KTM stores. Both the KTM Duke 200 and the Kawasaki Ninja 650R, launched earlier in June 2011, have received excellent response.

 

In FY2011-12, the Discover range in the mid-Commuter Deluxe segment has sold more than a lakh motorcycles every month, with annual sales of 1,279,619 bikes. Within Discover, contribution of the more powerful 125cc+ has nearly doubled to 53% of the brand portfolio this year. With several product and marketing initiatives planned for FY2013, Discover is set for further growth.

 

Reflecting the changing dynamics in the motorcycle market during FY2012, the Commuter Standard segment grew the fastest. Bajaj Auto also clocked healthy growth here with an annual volume of 570,871 motorcycles — contributed largely by the Platina.

 

New dealers appointed last year now have started contributing significant volumes.

 

Exports

 

As in the earlier year, Bajaj Auto has done very well indeed. Exports grew by 30% to clock 1,267,648 motorcycles in FY2012 — or 69% of all motorcycle exports from India.

 

Within motorcycles, Boxer is the largest selling single brand in Africa. A new 150 cc version of it, the BM-150, has been received well and holds good growth prospects.

 

In Philippines, Boxer BM-150 and the Pulsar 135 were launched and were well received, with the latter helping Bajaj Auto to gain 34% market share in the Sports segment.

 

In Latin America, where Bajaj Auto sells 20% of its total motorcycle exports, the business has grown by 43% over the previous year. Market shares increased with the Pulsar Brand doing exceptionally well. High profile media events ensured excitement for the brand. Pulsar 135 ranks among the top selling motorcycle models in various Latin American markets.

 

Commercial Vehicles

 

India

 

Domestic sales for three-wheelers across the industry in FY2012 declined by 2.4% to 513,251 units. Conditions were not conducive to growth of business on account of (i) frequent fuel price hikes, (ii) significant hardening of interest rates, and (iii) political disturbances leading to a generally negative sentiment.

 

Bajaj Auto, too, saw a marginal fall in sales — by 1.3% to 202,979 vehicles. However, with a fall lower than the industry, the Company’s market share increased by 40 basis points from 39.1% in FY2011 to 39.5% in FY2012.

 

Bajaj Auto has taken a number of strategic initiatives during the year. These include:

 

  • Network correction and expansion
  • Concerted efforts to increase market share of diesel vehicles through new marketing initiatives
  • Marketing efforts to promote alternate fuel vehicles in states like Gujarat (using CNG as the fuel),
  • Andhra Pradesh (LPG) and Karnataka (LPG)
  • Increase the share of public sector bank financing, thus making the vehicles more affordable
  • Generating other financing options for customers

 

With no improvement in the economic environment and with high inflation and fuel cost, we expect the financial year 2012-13 to be a challenging year for the domestic CV industry.

 

Exports

 

In contrast, exports have done very well. As Table 2 shows, exports for three-wheelers as a whole grew by over 34% to 362,876 units in FY2012. Accounting for the lion’s share, Bajaj Auto’s exports grew by 35% to 312,176 three-wheelers.

 

In South Asia, the overwhelming market shares continued to be maintained in the markets of Srilanka and Bangladesh. Srilanka powered the growth of three-wheelers on the back of consumer demand for it as a personal usage vehicle.

 

Overall, exports of three-wheelers have been more than satisfactory.

 

International Business

 

During FY2012, Bajaj Auto exported 1,579,824 vehicles — a growth of 31% over the previous year. This was further sweetened with a 40% increase in the value of exports to USD 1.37 billion as against 975 million in the previous year.

 

At 41% of the total exports, Africa accounts for the largest share by volume, followed by Asia and Middle East at 40%. This is for both motorcycles and three-wheelers.

 

The business will continue on the strategy to focus on Brand building and at specific initiatives at territorial levels. Growth in exports for the Company for the financial year 2012-13 in both motorcycles and three wheeler segments is facing some headwinds due to international events such as substantial rise in import duty in Srilanka, trade restrictions imposed in Argentina, Dollar trade embargo in Iran. Given this challenging environment, managing growth with profitability and building a sustainable growth momentum will continue to be a key challenge for the forthcoming financial year.

 

R and D: New Products

 

Pulsar 200 NS

 

This completely new engine and vehicle platform was designed to carry forward the legacy of Pulsar, Bajaj Auto’s most successful brand in the past decade. It has been designed to further enhance and sharpen the sports image of the brand. The Pulsar 200 NS is powered by a high performance 4-valve liquid cooled engine with a triple spark ignition, delivers 23.5 Ps, with a six-speed gear box. It is equipped with state of the art features like perimeter frame with high lateral rigidity, low slung central muffler, Nitrox mono shock rear suspension — all of which add up to provide excellent handling and riding pleasure. The vehicle also has disc brakes for both front and rear wheels.

 

At the heart of the Pulsar 200 NS is its cutting-edge engine which sets new benchmarks in performance, emission and fuel efficiency. It takes technology altogether to another level with a SOHC 4-valve triple spark engine controlled by an advanced electronic control unit for absolutely unmatched performance. The Pulsar 200 NS has received rave reviews from all biking experts. Bajaj Auto expects it to take the biking world by storm in FY2013.

 

KTM 200

 

This model extends the new platform of engine and vehicle co-designed by Bajaj and KTM from 125 cc to 200 cc. Unlike KTM 125, this model is aimed for Indian as well as European markets. The KTM 200 is powered by a high performance 4-valve liquid cooled fuel injection engine delivering 25 Ps, with a six-speed gear box. It is equipped with state of the art features like radial callipers for front disc brakes, inverted front forks, cast aluminium swing arm and radial tyres at both front and back.

 

BM-150 and BM-100

 

BM-100 is the number one bike in Africa. BM-150, debuted in FY2012, expands the BM range bringing the power of 150 cc to the utility segment of the market. It has a sturdy frame and wide tyres designed to do duty under demanding usage and difficult terrain conditions. The BM-150 has been well received in the export markets.

 

The BM-100 complements the BM-150 to bring in features like electric start to enhance the utility of the product. Its strong frame and modern engine make it very robust in trying conditions. The BM-100 and BM-150 together address competitors in Africa in the 100 cc to 150 cc category.

 

Operations and Productivity

 

Bajaj Auto’s plants at Waluj, Chakan and Pantnagar have constantly made efforts to improve upon EBITDA margins by optimising resources and increasing efficiency. This has helped in taking effective business decisions and attaining higher levels of efficiency across all operations.

 

The Pantnagar plant produced 1.138 million vehicles in FY2012, versus 0.914 million a year earlier — a growth of 24.5%. It has further augmented its plant capacity to meet future demand.

 

Waluj achieved the landmark production of 2.24 million motorcycles and commercial vehicles. The plant, which is also the export hub for Bajaj Auto, has accomplished its stated target of exporting 1.31 million vehicles exports in this year — and is gearing up to export more motorcycles and commercial vehicles.

 

Chakan has used its core competencies in manufacturing high end sports bikes, such as the Duke-125 and the Duke-200.

 

Subsidiaries

 

Bajaj Auto International Holdings BV (BAIH BV)

 

Bajaj Auto International Holdings BV is a 100% Netherlands based subsidiary of Bajaj Auto set up in FY2008. BAIH BV invested € 98.4 million to acquire 24.45% equity stake in KTM Power Sports AG of Austria, Europe’s second largest sport motorcycle manufacturer.

 

As the co-operation between KTM and Bajaj Auto took root, further investments were made and as on date BAIH BV has invested € 189.9 million for a 47.18% ownership. BAIH BV is the second largest shareholder in KTM after Cross Industries who owns majority stake.

 

KTM is a sharply positioned brand that leads global off-road and motor-cross segments, with its products being distributed via 1,100 dealers across the world. It is also an outstanding brand that connotes top class products using best-in-class technology — and thus enjoys tremendous pricing power.

 

Realising back-end synergies in development and supply chain and preserving the brand focus in the front end is the foundation of co-operation between KTM and Bajaj Auto. Both partners are aligned to the above and to realising the market potential that such co-operation could open up.

 

In calendar year 2011, KTM strongly rode out of the downturn selling 81,200 motorcycles, achieving a turnover of € 526.8 million and a profit of €20.8 million.

 

The first jointly developed KTM Duke 125, manufactured at our Chakan plant, was launched in Europe in FY2011 and has become a market leader in its class.

 

The European racing legend also rode into India with its KTM Duke 200 motorcycle to a rousing response in Q4 FY2012.

 

PT Bajaj Indonesia (PT BAI)

 

PT BAI, incorporated in FY2007, is a 98.9% subsidiary of Bajaj Auto in Indonesia. The subsidiary assembles and markets Pulsars in Indonesia. It sold 23,337 motorcycles in FY2012 versus 21,586 in FY2011 — a growth of 8%. At PBT level, the loss for FY2012 was Rs.120.000 Millions as compared to a loss of Rs.110.000 Millions in FY2011.

 

Total investment in PT BAI stands at USD 29.5 million (Rs.1378.200 Millions).

PRESS RELEASE

 

BAJAJ LAUNCHES NINJA 300 AT RS. 0.350 MILLION; TO PHASE OUT 250R

 

April 10, 2013, 09.22 PM IST

 

Bajaj Auto today said it hopes to sell around 2,000 units of the premium sports bike from the Kawasaki Ninja platform launched today, which is priced at Rs 0.350 Million. The new 'Ninja 300' is the fourth of the Kawasaki Ninja range of products launched in the country and the company said it will phase out the Ninja 250R model soon.

 

"We have sold 3,500 Ninja family bikes (250R and 650R models) since the first launch in 2009. We are planning to sell 1500-2,000 units of the Ninja 300 by the end of the fiscal," Bajaj Auto managing director Rajiv Bajaj told reporters at the much-awaited launch here.

 

He also said with this the company will phase out Ninja 250R model launched last August and the new model, Ninja 300 will be sold and serviced through its Probiking stores, the retail chain for premium bikes. Priced at Rs 3.5 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), the Ninja 300 replaces the Ninja 250R.

 

The new 300cc Ninja has a host of features which come from Kawasaki's bigger super-sports bikes like ZX-10R, ZX-6R and ZX-14 R, representing the Japanese bike major's racing technology edge, Kawasaki India spokesman Yuji Horiuchi said. Stating that the Ninja 300 would replace and improve upon the Ninja 250R, Horiuchi said, "the Ninja 250R has been a great success in the domestic market with more than 3,000 bikes sold till date and expressed the hope that the Ninja 300 will take this number even higher.

 

"When asked about the impact of the just-conlcued alliance between TVS and BMW for super premium bikes under the 500 cc category on his sales, Bajaj said, he does not see any threat from the tie-up.
