Hero MotoCorp June dispatches slip 2.3% to 541,159 units as domestic demand softens

Our read

June's 2.3% dispatch dip stems from soft domestic demand, but the 32.7% export surge and VIDA's 185% EV growth show your diversification levers are firing—double down on export channels and EV supply readiness.
