Starting in April all new motorcycles will need to adhere to the new BSIV norms, and it looks like Bajaj is already well prepared because they have just announced that their entire product range is already BS IV compliant from January 2017. The Central Pollution Control Board had earlier confirmed that BS III compliant vehicles could not be sold or registered anywhere in the country from 1st April’17. However, some automobile companies have requested that this deadline be extended.
The company also just launched the entire new range of its most popular Pulsar motorcycle brand. Mr. Rajiv Bajaj, MD – Bajaj Auto Ltd. said, “Bajaj Auto as a responsible corporate has complied with this directive and had already commenced manufacturing of BS IV complaint vehicles from October 2016. Moreover, with effect from Jan 2017 all products from all our 3 plants are BS IV compliant. We have thus ensured that all vehicles presented for registration from 1st April’17 onwards will be BS IV compliant. This has been possible because of meticulous planning for dealer stocks and switching over to production of BS IV compliant vehicles well in advance.
