Maruti Suzuki approved four CBG projects with Rs 561 crore first-phase investment, extending its clean-fuel strategy. Q1 sales rose 29.3% and market share reached 41.2%, but higher raw-material costs drove net profit down 11% despite revenue growth.

Why this matters

The CBG investment follows Q1 signals that Maruti Suzuki profit fell 11% as costs outpaced 36% revenue growth, while sales rose 36% and lifted domestic market share to 41.2%.

Retail-company signals are accelerating, up +217233% QoQ.
