Force Motors Q4 results

 

Force Motors reported a sharp rise in its fourth-quarter profit, driven by robust sales of its multi-seater vans—commonly used as school buses and ambulances—and a major one-time gain. 

 

The company’s consolidated net profit jumped to ₹435 crore in the quarter ended March 31, up from ₹140 crore a year earlier. Profit before exceptional items and tax rose 27.5 per cent Y-o-Y to ₹273 crore. The results were further boosted by a one-time income of ₹395 crore from government incentives.

 

Total sales during the quarter climbed 19.5 per cent, supported by increased government spending and strong demand for passenger carriers, a segment that forms a major part of Force Motors' commercial fleet. Revenue from operations rose 17.1 per cent to ₹2,356 crore, while total expenses increased 16 per cent to ₹2,106 crore, primarily due to an 11.7 per cent rise in material costs.
