Hero MotoCorp Q4 Results: Hero MotoCorp, India’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer, reported a 6% year-on-year (YoY) increase in standalone net profit to Rs 1,081 crore for the March quarter. Revenue from operations rose 4% YoY to Rs 9,519 crore.
The company’s board has recommended a final dividend of Rs 65 per share, pending shareholder approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM). The dividend will be paid within 30 days post-AGM.
EBITDA for the quarter grew 4% YoY to Rs 1,416 crore, while profit before tax (PBT) stood at Rs 1,442 crore, marking a 7% increase. Hero MotoCorp sold 13.81 lakh two-wheelers—including motorcycles and scooters—during the quarter.
For the full financial year FY25, the company posted record-high revenue and profit of Rs 40,756 crore and Rs 4,610 crore, respectively. EBITDA margin improved to 14.4%, up 40 basis points from the previous year, supported by a better product mix, cost optimisation, and softer commodity prices.
Hero attributed its strong annual performance to solid growth across the premium, scooter, and electric vehicle (EV) segments, backed by a series of new product launches. Export volumes also outperformed the broader market trend, and the company widened its premium retail footprint both domestically and internationally.
“We are seeing strong retail traction in our premium and scooter portfolio. Growth in the 125cc segment, along with continued consolidation in our core business and an upcoming EV launch, sets the stage for continued momentum,” said Vikram S. Kasbekar, Executive Director and Acting CEO, Hero MotoCorp.
During FY25, Hero ramped up its premium offerings with launches such as the Xtreme 250R, Xpulse 210, and 2024 Xtreme 160R 2V. In scooters, new models included the Destini 125, Xoom 125, and Xoom 160. The company also logged its highest-ever EV sales, registering a nearly 200% jump over FY24.
As of Tuesday, Hero MotoCorp shares were trading 0.14% higher at Rs 3,990 on the NSE.
