Vivek Vikram Singh, MD & Group CEO, said, 'In Q3 FY25, we achieved our highest-ever quarterly revenue, EBITDA, and adjusted net profit in Q3 FY26. Our revenue grew strongly by 39% year on year, primarily driven by the expansion of our electric vehicle traction motor and railway business in India. BEV revenue share improved meaningfully to 38% in Q3 from 32% in Q2FY26 and represents our second-best quarter till date in terms of absolute BEV revenue and share.

We have commercialized a new product in this quarter, the hydraulic motor controller, leveraging our strengths in motors and controllers to develop the solution for a new application outside the current product portfolio. We continue to add new EV customers and win new EV programs from our existing EV customers. Moreover, we commenced sample production of in-cabin radar sensors in our new SMT line at Chennai facility in this quarter, making us one of the few automotive radar manufacturers in India with local SMT manufacturing capability.'
