Bajaj Auto Ltd is one of the leading two & three wheeler manufacturers in India.

The company is the largest exported of two and three-wheelers in the country with exports forming 18% of its total sales. The company has two subsidiaries, namely Bajaj Auto International Holdings BV and PT Bajaj Indonesia.
The company was incorporated on April 30, 2007 as a wholly owned subsidiary of erstwhile Bajaj Auto Ltd (the holding company) with the name Bajaj Investment & Holding Ltd. The company received the certificate of commencement of business on May 7, 2007. The holding company operated in the segments, such as automotive, insurance and investment, and others. Considering the growth opportunities in the auto, wind-energy, insurance and finance sectors, the holding company de-merged their activities into three separate entities, each of which can focus on their core businesses and strengthen competencies.
