2-Minute Summary

✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Bajaj Auto delivered a record Q1 FY24 with revenue of ₹10,310 crore (+29% YoY), EBITDA of ₹1,954 crore (+51% YoY), and PAT of ₹1,665 crore. Domestic motorcycle retail grew 19% YoY, gaining 2% market share in the 125cc+ segment, which now constitutes 70% of domestic mix. Exports showed sequential improvement (12% QoQ volume growth) but remain 35% below prior year. Triumph Speed 400 received 17,000+ bookings; production ramp-up to 5,000/month by September. Chetak EV volumes doubled QoQ but face headwinds from FAME subsidy reduction. Management expects gradual export recovery and sustained domestic momentum, with Q2 performance similar to Q1. Key risk: export recovery may be slower than expected due to persistent forex constraints in key markets.
