A leading law firm AZB & Partners has been hired by a group of dealers to file a case against the American motorcycle brand Harley-Davidson Inc. after it exited the market as a part of a resting plan. In a press conference organised by The Federation of Automobile Dealers Association (FADA) in India, Rishi Aggarwal, a dealer said, “Harley has to compensate us for our losses. That is the only bone of contention. AZB is studying the case.”
The annual sales of the company became half and reached 2,470 motorcycles in FY19-20 from 4,641 units in five years. India is one of the leading motorbike and scooter markets of the world yet the company had to make a planned exit which was inevitable. Harley-Davidson hasn’t commented on this move, yet.
