Earning Calls Summary
Management Earnings Calls
Quarterly concall summaries, management commentary tracker & key metrics
Q2 Revenue Up 9.1%; Two-Wheeler Segment Surges 82% on OBD-2
Management described the past quarter as a "quarter of contrast" with mild global optimism but financial concerns at home. India delivered stellar 7.8% GDP growth in Q1 FY26, and the RBI maintained rates at 5.5% while turning mildly dovish. GST reforms in September significantly boosted affordability and pre-festive buying.
Q3 Revenue Up 9.4%; Two-Wheeler Continues 58% Growth Surge
Management noted the global economy is adjusting to geopolitical events and trade realignments, with IMF projecting global growth to slow to 3.1% in 2026. However, India continues to demonstrate powerful resilience with the IMF revising India's FY26 GDP estimate upward to 7.3%, driven by resilient domestic demand and easing inflation.
FY26 Revenue Up 10.8%; Two-Wheeler Surges 69% on OBD-2
Management opened noting resilient domestic economy driven by robust private consumption through fiscal stimuli and stable monetary policy. Significant global headwinds continue to demand attention, including heightened geopolitical instability in West Asia and fragile supply chains, but the company maintains a cautiously optimistic outlook.
Q1 Revenue Up 22%; EBITDA Grows 28% to ₹8,180 Million
Management opened noting resilient domestic economy driven by robust private consumption and stable monetary policy, with RBI holding repo rate at 5.25%. The Indian automotive industry concluded Q1 FY27 on a resilient note despite geopolitical disruptions, supported by strong domestic demand and lower GST rates.
