In order to avoid huge a loss on the remaining inventories, many dealers has offered a huge discount for their remaining BS-III vehicles on 30th and 31st of March 2017.

As they failed to sold all their BS-III models, many dealers registered the remaining vehicles to their own as well as to the employees name. This would helps them to resale these models to the demanded customers with some marginal discount from the ex-showroom price. One dealer from the Trivandrum of Kerala alone registered 100 vehicles to their name, hoping to sell these models in the near future. More than 1000 motorcycles in the state has been registered in this manner.
