Hero Cycles continues to dominate and surprise industry analysts with a steadfast growth curve reflecting the cycle business as a lucrative and strong focus area for the group. The growth in revenue is on account of some radical moves like the manufacturing hub in Sri Lanka and the coveted design centre HGD (Hero Global Design) in Manchester UK.

The auto business now sums up to about Rs 1,000 core in revenue which is a 10 percent growth from last year and the profits too being very healthy at 45 percent by the end of the current financial year.

Hero Global Design our state of the art design centre in Manchester is the nucleus of innovation and technology and their product lune ups have ensured that all our factories go up the curve in terms of design language of our products which are much ahead of competition in India and across the world.
