Even though they do, it will be really hard to price it in the Indian market as its price will be almost similar to its bigger sibling the Duke 200. So, The KTM Duke 150 might not be launched in India anytime soon.

This 150cc streetfighter looks like a great competitor to the likes of Yamaha MT-15 and Honda Hornet 2.0, at least on the paper. It will be too much of a hassle for KTM to develop an all-new 150cc bike, so its launch possibility is really low. However, if it turns into reality then the KTM Duke 150 will be one of the most exciting bikes in the 150cc segment.
