Hyundai Motor India, one of the leading passenger vehicles manufacturers in the country, has announced its financial results for FY2025.

The company reported revenue of INR 691 billion for FY2025, which was flat as compared to INR 698 billion last year. The EBITDA came at INR 89.53 billion, down 2 percent as compared to INR 91.32 billion last year. The profit after tax  came at INR 56 billion, down 7 percent YoY.

For Q4 FY2025, the revenue grew by 2 percent at INR 179 billion, as against INR 176 billion last year. The EBITDA was flat at INR 25.32 billion, as compared to INR 25.21 billion for the same period last year, while EBITDA came at 14.1 percent and net profit at INR 16.14 billion, down 4 percent YoY.

The company stated that despite a turbulent market situation, it was able to sustain growth with SUVs now contributing almost 68.5 percent of its total sales across urban and rural markets. The Hyundai Creta continued to hold over 30 percent market share in the mid-size segment.

Unsoo Kim, Managing Director, Hyundai Motor India, said, “FY2025 business performance demonstrates our ability to navigate the tides by responding quickly to the ever-changing customer aspirations. Launch of products like Creta Electric and Alcazar FL along with seamless product refreshments across segments helped us in maintaining our competitive edge. Hyundai’s strong brand presence in key global emerging markets enabled us to endure headwinds and sustain export volumes during the year. The year gone by signifies our resilience in the financial performance by way of sustained revenues and healthy operating margins attributable to improved realisation and cost control measures.”

Amidst macroeconomic headwinds, the automaker stated its domestic strategy centered around premiumisation and the surging popularity of SUVs. The company’s focus on advanced safety and comfort features, like ADAS and sunroofs, is part of its ongoing effort to meet evolving consumer aspirations.

On the exports front, Kim stated that “We aspire to become Hyundai’s largest export hub outside South Korea. For FY2026, we anticipate the growth in export volumes to be around 7 to 8 percent, supported by robust demand for our products in the emerging markets.”

As part of its long-term strategy, Hyundai Motor India is investing in expanding manufacturing capacity and preparing for the future of mobility. “FY2026 will mark a significant milestone in our growth journey, with the commencement of our third plant at Talegaon. Designed with flexibility at its core, the facility will be capable of producing both internal combustion engine (ICE) and electric vehicles, enabling us to respond dynamically to market demand.”

“We also intend to deepen our localized supplier network by adopting an indigenisation strategy at the Pune plant, further reinforcing our ‘Make in India’ vision,” said Kim.

The company has also outlined an aggressive roadmap with 26 product launches planned by FY2030 – including 20 ICE, 6 EVs and new hybrid technologies.

On the other hand, he mentioned a cautious, optimistic outlook for domestic demand in near term amid prevailing macro-turbulences and weakening customer sentiments.
