Motherson Sumi Wiring’s Q2 earnings beat consensus, lifting net profit to ₹223.37 crore from ₹165.34 crore a year earlier, a 35.1% rise that outpaces the 27% market average for the auto‑components sector
The company’s revenue surged 46.8% to ₹4,053.8 crore, eclipsing the analyst expectation of ₹3,900 crore and staying 22% above the previous quarter’s ₹2,761.9 crore. EBITDA climbed 33.6% to ₹373.6 crore, yet the margin slid to 9.22% from 10.13%, aligning with a broader industry squeeze driven by copper price pressure.
Vivek Chaand Sehgal, chairman, said the growth stemmed from higher customer volumes, deeper content per vehicle, and wins on new EV and ICE launches, adding that disciplined working‑capital management helped offset cost hikes.
The firm highlighted operational efficiencies and greenfield project ramp‑ups as buffers against volatile raw‑material costs.
Analysts recalibrated their price targets downward, citing the margin contraction as a warning sign. The stock closed 3.24% lower at ₹34.60 on Oct 30, ahead of the earnings release, and is poised to react to the post‑announcement data. Forward guidance remains absent, but the company’s focus on cost discipline and new‑model wins suggests a cautious optimism for the next quarter.
