Eicher Motors (EML) has reported its highest-ever Q1 revenue in FY2026, reaching INR 50.42 billion, up 14.8 percent YoY, from INR 43.93 billion last year.

The EBITDA grew by 3.2 percent to INR 12.03 billion, while Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at INR 12.05 billion, up 9.4 percent from INR 11.01 billion in Q1 FY2024-25.

During the quarter, Royal Enfield sold 261,326 motorcycles, which was 14.7 percent higher as compared to 227,736 units sold in the corresponding period last year.

VE Commercial Vehicles (VECV) posted INR 56.71 billion in revenue, up 11.9 percent from INR 50.70 billion, while EBITDA grew by 32.6 percent to INR 5.11 billion. The company sold 21,610 CVs in Q1, compared to 19,702 in the previous year. VECV’s revenue and EBITDA are not included in Eicher Motors’ consolidated financials, and its profit contribution is reflected as a single line in EML’s consolidated PAT.

B Govindarajan, MD, Eicher Motors, and CEO, Royal Enfiled, said, “At Eicher Motors, we’ve had a solid start to the year, with encouraging growth across both Royal Enfield and VECV. We continue to build consistent momentum in volumes, profitability and the strength of our overall portfolio. At Royal Enfield, we have sustained our growth momentum in the first quarter, anchored by our continued focus on product innovation, immersive riding experiences and a deeper expression of pure motorcycling. The refreshed Hunter 350 continues to be a key marker of growth for us, both in terms of volumes and community engagement. Moving ahead on our global ambition, we further strengthened our reach in the SAARC region and expanded our portfolio in Nepal with the locally assembled Classic 350. With a refreshed pipeline of motorcycles and a growing ecosystem of curated rides and culture-first experiences, we are shaping a vibrant and inclusive motorcycling movement. VECV, too, has delivered consistent growth, anchored in a strong product portfolio and a sharp understanding of India’s evolving commercial mobility needs. Our continued investment in sustainable, efficient transport solutions ensures we are well-positioned for the future. As we move forward, our commitment to long-term value creation remains strong – through customer-centric innovation, global ambition, and meaningful brand experiences at every level.”

Vinod Aggarwal, MD and CEO, VECV, and Vice Chairman, Eicher Motors, said, “CV delivered its best‑ever first quarter with 21,610 units in Q1 FY’26 (up 9.7 percent year‑on‑year) and broadened its footprint in a largely flat market. Overall market share improved to 18.7 percent (vs 17.3 percent last year), led by continued leadership in LMD trucks (34.5 percent share) and a strong showing in Buses, where Total Bus volumes grew 14.8 percent and market share rose to 21.5 percent. Exports grew by 20.5 percent over last year. Deliveries of all electric Eicher Pro X in SCV segment (2.0–3.5T) continue to gather momentum. Heavy‑Duty volumes were marginally lower reflecting a lower total market despite market share gains. Our connected vehicle solution “My Eicher” now connects 150,000 customers representing 350,000 vehicles. VECV reported strong revenue growth and expansion in profit margins linked to better volumes, pricing and cost discipline. PAT was lower as compared to previous year primarily due to one off impact in Q1 FY’25 linked to deferred tax reversal.”

VECV also reported improved market share in LMD trucks and buses, and growth in electric vehicle deliveries and exports.

Our showcase at EICMA this year reflected a perfect blend of past, present and future; ranging from the special edition of our most iconic motorcycle – the Classic 650 to a bigger and bolder Bullet 650, to pushing the boundaries of urban exploration with the Flying Flea S6. Carrying that energy back home, Motoverse in Goa welcomed people from across the globe, and it was heartening to see the strong enthusiasm for the new motorcycles we unveiled for the riding enthusiasts. Motoverse brought together riders who have been with us for decades and many who are just starting their journey with us and every moment there was a reminder that this community truly is the soul of Royal Enfield.”
