Financial Performance
Revenue Growth by Segment
Consolidated revenue grew 28.71% YoY to INR 292.45 Cr in FY25. The standalone Tyre segment showed exceptional growth of 59.55% YoY, reaching INR 60.925 Cr, driven by rural penetration and dealership outreach. However, Q2 FY26 saw a 14% YoY revenue decline to INR 66.10 Cr due to deferred demand linked to anticipated GST revisions.
Geographic Revenue Split
Domestic sales dominate the mix, while exports contributed 6.4% to standalone revenue (INR 11.415 Cr) in FY25. Key international markets include the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and East Africa (Kenya, Jordan, Egypt), where the company leverages its UAE-based subsidiary, Tolins Tyres LLC.
Profitability Margins
PAT margin improved significantly from 11.45% in FY24 to 13.23% in FY25, with absolute PAT rising 48.76% to INR 38.69 Cr. Gross margins remained stable at 27.91% in FY25 compared to 27.76% in FY24, indicating effective cost management despite raw material volatility.
EBITDA Margin
EBITDA margin stood at 19.07% in FY25, a slight compression from 20.41% in FY24. Absolute EBITDA grew 20.26% YoY to INR 55.77 Cr. The margin compression was influenced by a shift in product mix and rising raw material costs, though operational profitability remains robust.
