Maruti Suzuki Q4 FY26 Revenue Rises 28%, Net Profit Declines Amid Cost Pressures

Maruti Suzuki India reported a 28% year-on-year rise in Q4 FY26 revenue to around Rs 52,450 crore, driven by higher volumes and improved realizations. However, net profit declined by 6-7% to approximately Rs 3,590-3,660 crore due to increased raw material and operating costs. The company announced a record Rs 140 per share final dividend for FY26. Despite strong demand and export growth, margin pressures persisted amid cost inflation and production constraints.
