Highlights

The EBITDA for the FY 2015-16 has gone up from Rs. 213 crores to Rs.  346 crores which is 62% higher as compared to last  FY 2014-15.

The Traveller, Trax and Tractor categories all contributed to the growth. The company continues to focus in the utilitarian and rural vehicles. The growth in tractors has been achieved on a background of poor monsoon and strained agri-economy.

A significant addition to the top line was also achieved with the full operationalization of the engine factory at Chennai for supply to BMW India. This is besides the good growth in the engine and axles business with Mercedes Benz India Ltd.

The healthy growth pace is expected to be maintained in the year ahead especially if the monsoon and rural economy is favourable.
