In Q2 FY26, Hyundai Motor India posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 1,572 crore, up 14.3% year-on-year, supported mainly by a significant jump in exports and effective cost optimization strategies. Total revenue increased modestly by 1.2% year-on-year to Rs 17,460.82 crore. Domestic sales declined 6.8% to 139,521 units, but export volumes grew 21.5% to 51,400 units, helping to sustain profitability due to better margins on exports.
