TVS Motor Company Ltd's total two-wheeler sales has dropped to 81,032 units in April when compared with 84,747 units for the same month last year.

The total sales of motorcycles also decreased to 46,881 units as against 58,291 units sold in April last year, the company said in a release on Monday.

"This was mainly due to the continued drop in sales of two-stroke motorcycles," it said, adding another reason was the planned marketing initiatives for injecting Victor GLX
125, which was launched yesterday targeting the executive segment.
