As per Ashok Leyland Q1 FY26 earnings results, the company has posted a net profit of ₹594 crore in the June quarter, slightly above street expectations of ₹593 crore. The company’s share prices closed at ₹122.12, up by 2%.
In terms of operational performance, EBITDA rose 6.6% year-on-year to ₹970 crore. EBITDA margin expanded to 11% from 10.6% last year, helped by better cost control and favourable pricing. The company's revenue also rose to ₹8,725 crore, up 1.5% from ₹8,599 crore last year.
Ashok Leyland reported a 1% increase in total volumes compared to last year. Both its M&HCV and Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) segments saw a 1% rise in volumes year-on-year.
However, when compared to the March quarter, total volumes were down 25%. M&HCV volumes declined 30%, while LCV volumes were down 16% sequentially. This indicates a short-term slowdown in demand or possible seasonality.
