Sumeet Narang, Vice President (Marketing), Bajaj Auto, told Business Standard - "We are looking at exports of Bajaj V. Post its launch, we have been getting a lot of enquiries from our major export markets in Africa, Latin America. West Asia and Turkey. But exports would begin only after we have catered to the demand from the customers within the country. I hope exports of the bike to take off from next fiscal."
