Not just the new launches, but the sentiment for the stock also comes on the back of a new facility for assembling products in Nepal in partnership with CG Motors.

The two-wheeler major is set to establish a manufacturing facility in Nawalpur district with an annual capacity of 75,000 units. Hero aims to commence operations at the facility in March 2024. Hero MotoCorp entered the Nepalese market in 2014 and has since become a prominent player in the country.
