In December 2010, the Board of Directors of the HeroHonda Group have decided to terminate the joint venturebetween Hero Group of India and Honda of Japan in a
phased manner. The Hero Group of India would buy outthe 26% stake of the Honda in JV Hero Honda.[13]. Underthe joint venture Hero Group could not sell intointernational markets and the termination would mean thatHero Group can exploit global opportunities now. Sincelast 25 years the Hero Group relied on their Japanesepartner Honda for R & D for new bike models. So there areconcerns that the Hero Group might not be able to sustain
the performance of the Joint Venture alone.[14]
