Our focus remains on building a more resilient and well-balanced portfolio across vehicle segments and geographies, positioning us for balanced growth. Market sentiment remains tempered by regulatory uncertainty, evolving technology choices, and geopolitical concerns, leading to cautious demand trends, particularly in the EV and CV segments. While these headwinds persist across both domestic and export markets, we believe the global industrial slowdown has bottomed out. The long-term fundamentals of our industry remain strong, and we are well-positioned to leverage emerging opportunities. Our strategic focus on product diversification, market expansion, and technology-driven solutions will continue to drive sustainable growth and value creation." Result PDF
