The current slowdown in automotive sales has affected Indian two wheeler giant Bajaj too. They now are finding ways to counter their decline in sales.

They now will be exporting the KTM that is made in India to China. KTM is expected to launch their bikes in China in the coming weeks.

Bajaj will first offer the KTM 390 Duke in China and they will follow it later with their KTM Duke 200. China will witness the top to down offering of KTM's portfolio.

Bajaj is planning to increase its sales and will export close to 300 vehicles in their first year of exporting bikes to China. Bajaj currently exports around 1 lakh motorbikes in a month.
