I take this earnings report seriously from a market perspective. Quarterly sales up 71%, and parent company Bajaj Mobility also swinging back to profit — this is clear evidence that Indian capital is rebuilding a storied Austrian name. Amid the broader shift of motorcycle capital and production gravity toward India, what the numbers show in KTM's recovery feels genuinely symbolic.

In the end it's just Bajaj propping them back up.

If sales are recovering, hope they don't push prices up any further.

Glad to see KTM recovering, a manufacturer we couldn't afford to lose.

There was a time KTM was rumored to be going under.

Was KTM's financial situation really that bad?

Bajaj Mobility's EBITDA turning positive is a genuinely big number.

That 71% increase is probably just the rebound from last year's big slump.

There's some rebound effect, but the parent company turning profitable means the recovery's real.
