Bajaj Auto on Friday said its manufacturing, sales and customer-facing operations are functioning normally following the ransomware attack disclosed earlier this week, even as the investigation into the cybersecurity incident remains underway.
In a regulatory filing, the two-wheeler and three-wheeler maker said its manufacturing operations, sales, service activities, dealer support functions, customer services and other critical business operations continue without disruption.
“While the investigation remains ongoing, the Company remains focused on business continuity and serving its customers, dealers, vendors and business partners,” Bajaj Auto said.
The update comes three days after the company informed stock exchanges that it had detected a ransomware attack affecting its information technology systems and those of its wholly owned subsidiary, Bajaj Auto Technology Ltd. (BATL).
Following the breach, Bajaj Auto said its internal technology teams, senior management and external cybersecurity experts immediately initiated response protocols and precautionary measures to contain the incident and minimise its impact.
According to the company, the mitigation measures implemented so far have been effective based on the information currently available. The incident has also been reported to the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In), the country’s nodal agency for handling cybersecurity incidents.
The disclosure comes amid a spate of cyberattacks targeting large Indian manufacturers.
Earlier this week, Tata Electronics also confirmed a cybersecurity incident after ransomware group World Leaks claimed responsibility for breaching the company’s systems and publishing data on the dark web.
According to a Reuters report, cybersecurity researchers who reviewed the purported leaked files found documents linked to Apple and Tesla, including engineering specifications, manufacturing documentation, quality standards and internal records. The report said the leaked dataset allegedly exceeded 630 GB and contained more than 200,000 files.
Tata Electronics, however, said it had activated its incident response protocols immediately after detecting the breach and maintained that its manufacturing operations remained unaffected.
The incidents underscore the growing cybersecurity risks facing enterprises as digital operations become increasingly interconnected.
According to CERT-In, which functions under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), the agency handled more than 2.94 million cyber incidents in 2025. During the year, it issued 1,530 cybersecurity alerts, 390 vulnerability notes and 65 advisories as part of its national cyber defence efforts.
CERT-In has repeatedly cautioned that interconnected enterprise environments, software supply chains and increasing reliance on third-party vendors are significantly expanding the cyber threat landscape for organisations across sectors.
