Founded in 1926, at the height of India's movement for independence from the British, the group has an illustrious history. The integrity, dedication, resourcefulness, and determination to succeed which are characteristic of the group today, are often traced back to its birth during those days of relentless devotion to a common cause. Jamnalal Bajaj, the founder of the group, was a close confidant and disciple of Mahatma Gandhi. In fact, Gandhiji had adopted him as his son.
This close relationship and his deep involvement in the independence movement did not leave Jamnalal Bajaj with much time to spend on his newly launched business venture. We are celebrating the 125th Birth anniversary of Shri. Jamnalal Bajaj on 4th of November 2014.
In 2005, Rahul Bajaj's son Rajiv Bajaj stepped into the shoes of Managing Director of Bajaj Auto and steered the organization to becoming a global automobile behemoth. He introduced the Pulsar range of bikes, that revolutionized the two-wheeler market in India. The legacy of our Auto Rickshaws has been soaring heights and displays unparalleled market dominance across any automobile segment.
In 2007, Bajaj Auto acquired a 14% stake in KTM that has since grown to 48%. This partnership catalyzed Bajaj Auto’s endeavor to democratize motorcycle racing in India. Bajaj Auto today exclusively manufactures Duke's range of KTM bikes and exports them worldwide. In FY2018, KTM was the fastest-growing motorcycle brand in the country
