Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Maruti Suzuki India Limited achieved its highest-ever quarterly total sales volume of 696,654 units during Q2 FY27, representing a robust 26.5 percent expansion over the corresponding period of the previous year.
Domestic passenger vehicle demand proved exceptionally broad-based, propelled by a 35.9 percent increase in small car sales and a 68.2 percent surge in utility vehicle deliveries following strong market acceptance of recently introduced SUV models.
The heavy order influx allowed the company to expand its domestic market share by 2.2 percentage points to reach 40.8 percent, while recent capacity additions helped service elevated customer demand.
Despite expanded operating capacity, demand continued to outpace production output, leaving the company with a lean network inventory of approximately 17 days and a massive backlog of roughly 200,000 pending bookings at the close of the quarter.
Export shipments experienced slight headwinds from challenging geopolitical conditions, yielding 108,119 units in Q2 FY27 compared to 110,487 units in the prior-year period.
Financial performance showed divergent trends between core operations and non-operating lines. While net sales climbed to record levels, bottom-line profitability experienced downward pressure due to commodity cost inflation and mark-to-market valuation losses on invested financial surpluses.
