Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd. reported revenue of ₹87,677 cr for April to June 2025, −18.1% on the year and −10.9% on the quarter. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹3.64 lakh cr, −17.6% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹8,162 cr, a margin of 9.3%, −493 bps on the year and −532 bps on the quarter. It is the narrowest margin of the last 8 quarters (range 9.3% to 14.6%). Operating costs grew −13.4%, faster than revenue at −18.1%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹4,003 cr, −62.2% on the year and −53.2% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹10.66. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax fell 63.7%, so the profit growth came from the business itself. The tax rate of 25% is in line with its recent average. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹21,564 cr, −44.8% 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 ₹57.72 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹287.40 trades at 5.0 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.
