Schaeffler India Ltd. reported revenue of ₹2,360 cr for July to September 2025, +13.8% on the year and +3.4% on the quarter. It is the highest quarterly revenue in the last 10 quarters on record. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹8,834 cr, +12.5% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹467 cr, a margin of 19.8%, +170 bps on the year and +90 bps on the quarter. It is the widest margin of the last 8 quarters (range 17.7% to 19.8%). Operating costs grew +11.5% against revenue growth of +13.8%, so more of each rupee of sales reached operating profit.
Net profit was ₹307 cr, +24.3% on the year and +3.7% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹19.62. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew 25.7%, so the profit growth came from the business itself. The tax rate of 26% is in line with its recent average. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹1,117 cr, +18.1% on the four before.
A vehicle maker's revenue is volumes times average price, and its margin moves with steel, aluminium and rubber costs and with the share of exports and premium models. The quarterly statements do not carry volumes, realisation per vehicle and the export share; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹71.50 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹3,672.30 trades at 51.4 times trailing earnings.
