Eicher Motors reported a strong Q3 FY25, driven by Royal Enfield's record retail growth of ~19% and VECV's highest-ever quarterly sales of 21,012 units. Royal Enfield's market share in motorcycles reached ~10.5%, supported by successful new launches (Classic 650, Goan Classic, Bear 650) and festive marketing. VECV's EBITDA margin expanded 80bps YoY to 8.8% on better cost and price management. Exports surged 44.5% to 1,192 units. Management remains bullish on growth, with Flying Flea EV launch expected in Q1 2026 and continued brand investments. Key risks include potential margin pressure from ongoing marketing spend and OBD-2B cost inflation. Guidance points to sustained momentum in Q4, with VECV CapEx of ~INR 1,000 crore on track.
ईचर मोटर्स ने Q3 FY25 में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। रॉयल एनफील्ड की बिक्री लगभग 19% बढ़ी, और VECV ने सबसे ज़्यादा 21,012 वाहन बेचे। रॉयल एनफील्ड का बाज़ार हिस्सा मोटरसाइकिलों में लगभग 10.5% हो गया, जिसमें नए मॉडल (क्लासिक 650, गोअन क्लासिक, बियर 650) और त्योहारी मार्केटिंग का सहारा मिला। VECV का मुनाफा (EBITDA) 8.8% तक बढ़ा, क्योंकि लागत और कीमतों का बेहतर प्रबंधन हुआ। निर्यात 44.5% बढ़कर 1,192 यूनिट हो गया। कंपनी को आगे भी अच्छी उम्मीद है, फ्लाइंग फ्ली ईवी Q1 2026 में लॉन्च होगी। जोखिम: मार्केटिंग खर्च और OBD-2B लागत बढ़ने से मुनाफा कम हो सकता है। Q4 में भी तेज़ी रहेगी, VECV का 1,000 करोड़ रुपये का निवेश जारी है।
