In FY25, we delivered our best-ever full-year profitability, with a Gross Profit margin of 58.0%, an EBITDA margin of 28.9%, and an adjusted PAT margin of 18.6%, reflecting consistent profitability improvement over the years.

During the year, we announced new orders worth over Rs. 1,600 crore in the PV and Industrial segments, to be executed over the next 5- 8 years, with annual peak sales potential from these orders exceeding Rs. 250 crore. During Q4FY25, we recorded yoy growth of 2.5%, 6.4%, and 5.3% in Revenues, Gross Profit, and EBITDA, respectively, supported by strong and improved Gross Profit and EBITDA margins of 58.7% and 29.1%, respectively. We witnessed encouraging yoy growth in the Industrials, Off-highway, and Farm Equipment segments in Q4FY25. This strong performance was achieved despite significant headwinds, including a double-digit decline in international CV, Farm Equipment, and Off-highway segments, a domestic slowdown in the MHCV segment, and falling steel prices, demonstrating the strength and resilience of our business model. Our balance sheet remains robust, with liquidity of Rs. 356 crore. with one of the lowest DE ratio at 0.1x, supported by strong operating cash flow generation of Rs. ~290 crore. in FY25. This positions us well to support our capex plan over the next three years that can be funded primarily through internal accruals. Reflecting our strong financial position, the Board has recommended a dividend of Rs. 3 per share for FY25, implying a payout ratio of ~11%. We remain committed to our strategic priorities and growth, investing in capabilities to serve diversified segments while pursuing value-accretive opportunities to reinforce our positive trajectory.” Result PDF
