On the reaction day the stock moved 7.6 pts more than Nifty Smallcap 250 and 7.2 pts more than its 2/3 Wheelers peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Q2 FY27 wholesale volume rose 42% to 93,000, registrations 60% to 92,500, and pre-orders 108% to 180,000. Gross margin reached 24%, up 1.6 points from Q1, and profit after tax turned positive. Management plans to lift capacity from 920,000 to 1.14 million units a year by Q2 FY28. Commodity inflation cut gross margin by 9.4 points, but pricing, product mix and cost savings offset most of it. Management gave no electric motorcycle launch timeline.
Strong demand, margin gains and capacity support growth. Commodity costs and factory ramp-up risk could keep near-term results volatile.
