Hyundai India Q1 profit falls 35.1% as exports and Chennai output weaken
Hyundai Motor India reported Q1 FY27 net profit of ₹886.6 crore, down 35.1% year on year, as West Asia exports declined and a Chennai-area plant incident disrupted output. The carmaker expects recovery in Q2, plans about ₹7,500 crore in FY27 capex and will launch a mid-SUV and EV.
Hyundai Motor India’s Q1 FY27 profit fell 35.1% after a Chennai-area fire and weaker West Asia exports. It expects production recovery in Q2, plans ₹7,500 crore capex, rural network expansion, and launches of a mid-SUV and EV this fiscal year.
Why this matters
The result follows Hyundai’s recent signal on a supplier fire and weaker West Asia exports, while planned Creta-segment SUV and EV launches and Pune capacity ramp-up point to a recovery push.
