Bajaj Auto FY25 Business Highlights

During FY25, the company achieved a significant milestone with revenue surpassing ₹50,000 crores for the first time—an impressive 12% year-on-year (YoY) growth—driven by record-breaking sales in both vehicles and spares. Overall volumes grew 7% YoY, supported by a strong domestic performance in the first half. While the second half saw a softer domestic market, this was more than offset by a robust recovery in exports, underscoring the company’s resilient and adaptable business model.

EBITDA reached an all-time high of ₹10,101 crores, up 14% YoY, with Profit After Tax also hitting a record of over ₹8,000 crores. The EBITDA margin remained steady at 20.2%, improving by 40 basis points YoY, even with a sharp rise in sales of lower-margin electric scooters. This margin resilience was enabled by effective pricing strategies, cost efficiencies, favorable dollar realisation, and scale-driven operating leverage.

The domestic business recorded its highest-ever revenue, growing 12% YoY with strong double-digit growth in both two-wheeler and three-wheeler segments. Notably, revenue from electric vehicles crossed ₹5,500 crores—constituting about 20% of the domestic portfolio—reflecting the company’s leadership in the EV segment. With a fully PLI-certified product line and vastly improved unit economics, the EV journey over the past three years highlights the organisation’s agility and strategic foresight.

Exports posted a strong recovery, delivering double-digit growth in both volume and revenue, coming within ₹100 crores of the all-time high achieved in FY22. Latin America registered record volumes for the second consecutive year, while Asia bounced back robustly, helping offset a slowdown in KTM exports in the latter half. The Pulsar and Dominar brands reached new volume peaks, and commercial vehicle exports also gained traction, illustrating broad-based momentum across markets.
