If reports are to be believed, there is a bad news for all the Hyosung supporters. According to trusted sources, there is a confirmation that Garware Motors has almost finalized of selling its share in the Hyosung joint venture. They have decided to give their share to DMK, which are a leading real estatate developing firm from Pune. DSK is also famous because of their Toyota dealership in Pune which was one of the largest dealerships of India. This move is expected to give a huge boom to DSK in the country's two-wheeler market. Garware Motors, which is also a prominent player of this field, has 18 dealership centres in India at present.

There are speculations about what could have caused Garware Motors to sell its share in Hyusung's India's operations. The major reasons that are being cited are that maybe DSK provided Garware Motors with a very attractive offer and they were tempted to take it up or probably Garware Motors might have given up on its plans of making any more investments in Hyosung. Recently, the Supreme Court banned the use of Sun films which has closed the Rs. 150 crore Sun film sector. Garware Motors was one of the major players in the Sun film industry and its shuttiing down could have also forced Garware Motors to be more circumspect with their investment plans.

 
However, the withdrawal from Garware Motors has not been at the best of times. Hyosung is going to launch the Hyosung GT250R very soon and the changes in the management can have ann effect on the company. At present, the products from Hyosung being sold in India are GT650R, GT650N and ST7 bikes. The company has further planned to introduce the GV650 in somewhere around the end of the year. Also GV250 is expected to be launched sometime in 2013. Now it needs to be seen whether DSK manages Hyosung and Garware well enough or it suffers a similar fate as that of Kinetic. We have to wait and watch.
