Two-wheeler maker Hero MotoCorp on Sunday, August 6, reported a steady rise in standalone net profit to ₹1,126 crore for the first quarter ended June 30, 2025 (Q2FY26) as against ₹1,123 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal.
The Gurgaon-based company’s revenue stood at ₹9,579 crore in the quarter under review, up 6% from ₹10,144 crore in the same quarter a year ago.
At the operating level, Hero MotoCorp’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) stood at ₹1,382 crore as against ₹1,460 crore last year, a decline of 5.3%.
EBITDA also remained stable at 14.3%.
On a consolidated basis, Hero MotoCorp’s revenue and profit after tax (PAT) stood at ₹9,728 crore and ₹1,706 crore, respectively.
The overall profit for the quarter includes a one-time gain of ₹722 crore on account of reduction in the company’s equity investments by associates of public corporations and private enterprises.
Commenting on the performance, Vivek Anand, Chief Financial Officer, said, “Our sustainability and robustness remained strong led by strong demand for our entry level and deluxe motorcycles and the weaker 125cc segments. We are seeing good progress in our electric mobility business (VIDA), and global players are also emerging as industry leaders, building our brand’s position internationally.”
In Q1 FY26, Hero MotoCorp sold 13.67 lakh motorcycles and electric cars.
During the quarter, Hero MotoCorp strengthened the position of its products in the market share. In the 125cc classic segment, the Destiny 125 and Miami 125 led the way. In the 100cc motorcycle segment, Hero MotoCorp expanded the HF Deluxe portfolio with the launch of the HF Deluxe Pro, the company said.
The company also saw consistent momentum in its electric mobility business under the VIDA brand, strengthening its position in the emerging electric vehicle (EV) segment. The global commercial business also outperformed industry trends, driven by growth in key international products and a growing portfolio in premium and commuter motorcycles.
In the June quarter, supermarket demand remained stable, driven by growth in vehicle registrations. With the upcoming festival season and a strong series of new launches, the company expects demand to remain healthy in the coming quarters.
Anand further added, “With favourable customer sentiment, upcoming festive season and a strong series of new launches, we are confident of sustaining and accelerating growth in the coming quarters.”
Earlier, Hero MotoCorp shares closed 1.69% lower at ₹4,470.10 per share on the National Stock Exchange.
