Risk intelligence

Material risks this quarter

Margin compression from broadened inflation

Commodity inflation has expanded beyond base metals (steel +10%, aluminium/platinum/rhodium +40%) to include proprietary components, electronics, labor, logistics, energy, and conversion costs. Q2 will reflect full impact as these costs build sequentially.

Market share erosion in entry-level 100-125cc segment

Wholesale market share declining as company prioritizes profitability over volume in 100cc segment, which has shrunk from 55% to 46% of motorcycle market over 5-7 years. EV adoption also cannibalizing ICE scooters most impacted in this range.

medium

Capacity constraints limiting growth

Capacity emerged as key constraint across EV two-wheelers (current ~50,000/month limiting to ~60,000), EV three-wheelers, and high-end motorcycles. Demand consistently ahead of supply, risking market share loss to competitors with available capacity.

medium

KTM turnaround execution risk

KTM turnaround is progressing but remains work-in-progress with inventory normalization and cost control still ongoing. First full quarter of line-by-line consolidation creates comparability challenges; any delay in turnaround could impact consolidated financials.
