Eicher Motors reported a better-than-expected performance for the June quarter. Net profit growth at the consolidated level stood at Rs 376 crore, 58.6 per cent higher than a year ago. The consensus estimates had pegged the number at Rs 354 crore. Good operational show at the standalone entity (Royal Enfield) and the commercial vehicle, venture Volvo Eicher Commercial Vehicles (VECV), helped. While the Royal Enfield net profit increased 69.5 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y) to Rs 330 crore, VECV contribution stood at Rs 46 crore, up 21 per cent. For Royal Enfield, the strong performance was led by a 38 per cent increase in volumes, while realisations on the back of price rises was up 2.7 per cent. Though exports form a small portion of volumes, given the higher growth and margins, it would have contributed to realisation gains, according to analysts. VECV volumes were up 34 per cent, led by the five to 14-tonne segment.
