Gurugram: Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) has announced its financial results for Q2 FY2025-26, and the numbers are running smoother than a freshly serviced Creta. The company reported a Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹15,723 million, marking a 14.3% year-on-year surge, while EBITDA clocked in at ₹24,289 million with a tidy 13.9% margin, up 113 basis points. Clearly, Hyundai’s “Quality of Growth” strategy isn’t just a tagline — it’s translating into cold, hard rupees.
SUVs, Sales, and Smiles
Hyundai’s domestic volumes grew 5.5% quarter-on-quarter, powered by what could only be described as an SUV stampede. SUVs now make up a record 71.1% of domestic sales, proving that India’s love affair with tall, muscular vehicles shows no sign of fading. Rural India too joined the joyride, contributing 23.6% to sales — the highest ever, as Hyundai’s reach extends well beyond city lights.
Exports: Made in India, Parked Worldwide
While the domestic market delivered festive fireworks, exports added their own sparkle. Hyundai’s overseas shipments surged 21.5% year-on-year, now forming 27% of total volumes — a figure that might make even the customs officer proud. From Gurugram to the Gulf, “Make in India” is clearly revving strong.
Revenues and Reforms
Revenue for Q2 stood at ₹174,608 million, up 1.2% from last year. According to Unsoo Kim, Managing Director, “The transformative GST reforms have acted as a catalyst,” helping fuel demand and keep the assembly lines humming. His optimism suggests that the upcoming quarters could well see Hyundai maintaining its turbocharged trajectory.
With near-14% EBITDA, 14% profit growth, and 71% SUVs in its lineup mix, Hyundai’s Q2 looks like a finely tuned powertrain — efficient, balanced, and roaring ahead. If financial performance were a car, this one would have its drive mode set to Sport+, cruising confidently toward FY26 with both headlights on the road and one eye on the global leaderboard.
