Royal Enfield has released the sales numbers for the month of April 2021. Last month, the company witnessed a month-on-month (M-o-M) de-growth of 18 per cent with 48,789 units sold in the domestic market as compared to 60,173 units sold in March 2021. This slump in monthly sales can be attributed to the ongoing lockdown-like restrictions that have been imposed in several states across the country. This has resulted in a substantial drop in general footfalls and enquiries directly impacting the auto industry.
