Motherson Sumi Wiring Q1 Results
Motherson Sumi Wiring India reported a mixed financial performance for the first quarter, marked by a robust top-line surge but muted profitability growth. The auto component manufacturer's revenue from operations soared by 36.6% year-on-year to Rs 3,407 crore, up from Rs 2,494 crore in the corresponding quarter last year.
Despite the strong sales momentum, operational margins faced pressure, with the EBITDA margin contracting to 7.6% from 9.8% a year ago, even as absolute EBITDA saw a modest 5.7% increase to Rs 258 crore from Rs 244 crore. Consequently, the company's net profit witnessed only a marginal rise of 1.6%, settling at Rs 145 crore compared to Rs 143 crore in the same period last year.
