India’s 150cc to 200cc motorcycle segment has not seen a lot of action in the recent past, where new launches are concerned. However, this is one of those goldilocks segment for OEMs where demand is constant. For the month of April 2026, this segment witnessed 1,86,140 units sold with a YoY growth of 24.91% and a 1.88% MoM de-growth.

The best-seller in this segment used to be Pulsar lineup from Bajaj Auto, but the tide was in favour of TVS Motor as Apache lineup trumped. Let’s break the numbers down.
