Royal Enfield Bullet 350 Prices Increased By Up To Rs. 3,000

NDTV6 hours ago

The iconic Royal Enfield Bullet 350 underwent a generation change in 2023, when it finally transitioned to the brand's modern J-series platform, joining the likes of the Meteor 350, Classic 350 and Hunter 350. While the fundamentals have remained unchanged since then, Royal Enfield has introduced a few strategic updates to the Bullet 350's variant lineup and has rejigged the pricing as well. The entry point into the Bullet family is the Battalion Black variant, priced at Rs. 1.75 lakh, which sees no price increase. With its all-black bodywork, golden hand-painted pinstripes, retro-style taillight, scooped single seat, and a rear drum brake, this new base variant is designed to cater to purists who prefer the traditional Bullet styling.
Following that is the Military variant which is still offered in Black and Red, which also carries a Rs. 1.75 lakh price tag, getting a Rs. 2,000 hike over its original price. The standard variant, available in Black and Maroon, now costs Rs. 2.00 lakh, up by Rs. 3,000. The flagship Black Gold version has seen a marginal increase too and is now priced at Rs. 2.18 lakh, up by Rs. 2,000. Royal Enfield had also introduced a Military Silver variant briefly, but it has since been discontinued.
While the variant mix has changed slightly and prices have gone up by Rs. 2,000 - Rs. 3,000 across the board, the Bullet 350 remains mechanically identical. It continues to be powered by the 349 cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that produces 20.2 hp and 27 Nm.
However, a noteworthy update lies on the horizon. Royal Enfield is expected to equip the entire 350cc range, including the Bullet, with the slip-and-assist clutch that recently debuted on the 2025 Hunter 350. This small but significant upgrade should enhance the riding experience, particularly in city traffic.

India Ratings affirms ratings of JK Tyre at 'AA-' with 'stable' outlook

JK Tyre & Industries (JKTIL) said that India Ratings and Research has affirmed its rating on the bank loan facilties of the company at 'IND AA-' with 'stable' outlook. India Ratings and Research stated that the affirmation reflects JKTILs strong market position in the truck and bus tyres segment, both bias as well as radial, and an improving product mix with a higher proportion of margin-accretive products in the overall revenue contribution. Furthermore, with an improved capacity utilisation across product categories and geographies, the companys revenue grew at CAGR of 11% over FY20-FY25. During FY25, the companys revenue and EBITDA levels plummeted amid a demand slowdown in the commercial vehicle (CV) segment as well as in its overseas entity while its EBITDA margins moderated on account of a significant rise in the raw material prices during the year. As a result, the companys net leverage elevated in FY25, and is likely to remain high in FY26 as well amid the large capex planned out in its Indian operations. However, with a likely improvement in the demand scenario, improved capacity utilisation and an anticipation of a stable raw material prices, would help to keep net leverage within Ind-Ras rating trigger. The ratings also reflects JKTILs diversified revenue base and improving brand presence across segments. JK Tyre & Industries (JKTIL) is a leading tyre manufacturer in India. JKTIL operates through nine plants in India and two in Mexico, with an installed capacity of 35 million tyres annually. The scrip fell 1.80% to currently trade at Rs 361 on the BSE today.
