BMW S 1000 RR Achieves 1000 Units Sales Milestone In India
The new BMW S 1000 RR was launched in India at the Auto Expo 2025 at an ex-showroom price of Rs 20.75 lakh. It has a 999cc engine that generates 210 hp at 13,750 rpm to ensure powerful propulsion. The maximum engine speed is 14,600 rpm. The airbox, as on the M RR, features variable intake funnels that optimise charge change and power generation, especially at high engine speeds.
Talking about the highlights, the BMW S 1000 RR claims to have an extremely compact layout and super-sporty appeal that creates perfect harmony for the road and racetrack. The high windscreen, side winglets and partitioning of the lower triple clamp further optimise aerodynamics and help in maintaining the top speed. Another key point in optimizing aerodynamics is the area around the front wheel. The new RR features brake cooling ducts - known as Brake Ducts - in this area. The new M short-stroke throttle ensures relaxed throttle control and perfect handling without the need to reposition the hand or twist the wrist.
BMW S 1000 RR celebrates 1000 unit sales in India
Mr. Vikram Pawah, President and CEO, BMW Group India, said, "The BMW S 1000 RR is more than a superbike, it is a symbol of precision engineering and absolute performance. Crossing the 1,000 unit milestone in India underscores the S 1000 RR's immense popularity, whether on the road or track, where its exceptional performance delivers unparalleled power, agility, and adrenaline-pumping thrills. We are proud to see it become the preferred choice for motorcycling enthusiasts who demand nothing but the best."
Mr. Varun Yadav from Delhi now holds the distinction of becoming the 1,000th BMW S 1000 RR owner in India. The motorcycle was handed over to Mr. Yadav by Mr. Shardenduu Chaturvedi, Director - BMW Motorrad India, and Mr. Manish Gupta, Dealer Principal, Lutyens Motorrad, at an exclusive ceremony. The glittering ceremony was made special with the participation of friends, family, and the passionate BMW Motorrad India riding community.

BJP launches helpline for protecting small traders' interests
Bengaluru: The Karnataka unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party, on Saturday, announced the launch of a helpline to safeguard the interests of small traders in the state in the backdrop of row over GST Addressing a press conference at the State BJP Office, Jagannath Bhavan, in Bengaluru, the Leader of the Opposition in Legislative Council, Chalavadi Narayanaswamy, has said that the BJP will launch a helpline (8884245123) from July 21 to safeguard the interests of small traders in the state. He added that street vendors and small traders had been served notices by the state government, creating confusion and fear among poor traders in the state. He criticised the Congress-led state government for failing to provide solutions or clarify what constitutes taxable income. Narayanaswamy said that as per Central government's data available with the state, traders whose annual turnover exceeded Rs 40 lakh must register and pay GST. 'Service providers with turnover above Rs 20 lakh are also liable to pay GST. However, the notices sent by the state are not valid in many cases,' he alleged. 'Traders are not tax evaders or criminals. They do not understand the tax rules, and the state government has failed to educate them,' he said. He urged the state government to protect the interests of the poor traders rather than intimidate them. He said that according to Central government rules, GST is applicable only if the annual turnover exceeds Rs 1.5 crore at one per cent rate. 'For street vendors to fall under GST, they must have a permanent shop and address. There is an exemption for turnover up to Rs 40 lakh and issuing notices to traders with turnover above Rs 20 lakh has created confusion,' Narayanaswamy added. He also said that apps like Paytm, PhonePe, and Google Pay used for UPI transactions were being tracked, and funds received by traders directly into bank accounts were being used to send notices. 'But it's not being verified whether the turnover exceeding limits is due to actual business or loans and other types of transactions,' he clarified. According to G.S. Prashanth, State Convener of BJP'sEconomic Cell, items like flowers, fruits, vegetables, milk, meat, paneer, bangles, and many other products are exempted from GST. 'Even if someone does Rs 10 crore turnover in these exempted items, GST registration is not mandatory. Yet, notices have been sent to such traders by the state GST department,' he alleged. He added that according to GST laws, third-party data cannot be used to issue tax notices without verification. 'Information from Paytm, PhonePe, or Google Pay must be verified first. Officials must ascertain whether the trader's goods fall under GST before issuing notices. Unfortunately, none of this due process has been followed,' Prashanth claimed. He also said: 'The state GST department has done nothing to spread awareness among street vendors about the taxes. Nearly 90 per cent of traders fall under the jurisdiction of the state GST, and only 10 per cent under Central GST. Yet, without any outreach or information sharing, the state has spread fear among small traders.' Therefore, the 14,000 notices issued to traders by the state government are illegal and unconstitutional, he asserted. Those present at the press conference were Rajya Sabha MP Lehar Singh, Chikkaballapur district president S.V. Ramachandragowda (Seakal), BJP Medical Cell state convenor Dr. K. Narayan, BJP Economic Cell state convenor G.S. Prashanth, and former BJP state spokesperson G.V. Krishna. When asked about the state government's notices to small traders demanding tax payments, State BJP Preident B.Y. Vijayendra said, 'We discussed this yesterday with party leaders. The Siddaramaiah-led Congress government, which is struggling to mobilise funds for its guarantee schemes, is now intimidating street vendors by sending them tax notices.' 'While GST goes to the Centre, it is a fact that no other state in the country has seen such developments. But in Karnataka, the state government is unable to manage its finances for guarantees and development. So, under the Chief Minister's instructions, they are threatening traders andstreet vendors,' he added.
