In October, the business raised rates for the sixth time, with the CD70 price rising to Rs90,000 after a Rs4,000 hike.
According to a motorbike dealer who spoke to a news outlet, the current jump was caused by an increase in raw materials prices. He added that the cost of production has increased since the dollar rate has risen to Rs175.
