Ashok Leyland, the flagship commercial vehicle manufacturer of the Hinduja Group, announced total vehicle sales of 15,484 units for May 2025. This performance comes on the back of a strong financial year and continued market momentum.
Key Highlights:
Steady Sales Performance: Ashok Leyland sold 15,484 vehicles in May 2025, reflecting its robust presence in the commercial vehicle sector despite a competitive market environment.
Segment Insights: The company has seen mixed trends across its product segments in recent months. While April 2025 saw a 6% year-on-year growth in the Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) category, Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicle (MHCV) domestic sales were down 10% year-on-year. This highlights the company’s resilience in the LCV segment and ongoing challenges in the MHCV space.
Recent Financial Milestones: Ashok Leyland recently reported record profits for Q4 and the full FY25, with the highest-ever quarterly and annual revenues, EBITDA, and PAT. The company’s Q4 EBITDA margin touched 15%, and profit after tax for FY25 jumped 26% over the previous year, signaling strong operational efficiency and cost management.
Strategic Initiatives: The company has expanded its dealership network, secured significant new orders (including a 250-truck order from Patanjali Parivahan), and declared a 1:1 bonus share issue, reflecting confidence in future growth.
Market Outlook: With ongoing expansion, new product launches, and a focus on both domestic and export markets, Ashok Leyland is well-positioned to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the commercial vehicle industry.
