Mumbai: The country's auto industry is in the grip of a slowdown these days. Cars and commercial vehicles have already been hit by it. Now, the two-wheelers have also been hit. Hero MotoCorp, the country's largest two-wheeler manufacturer, has reported a 21.18 percent drop in sales. In July last year, the company sold 6,79,862 two-wheelers. But in July this year, sales fell to 5,35,810 units. The company said in a statement on Friday that the slowdown in the first quarter continued in July.

The company believes that the remaining time of the year will largely depend on the monsoon situation or the sale of the festive season.

In the month of July this year, the company was able to sell only 4,89,631 vehicles.
