On standalone basis, the battery manufacturer’s net profit jumped 23.11% to Rs 244.55 crore in Q1 FY25 as against with Rs 198.65 crore in Q1 FY24.
Revenue from operations stood at Rs 3131.19 crore during the quarter, up 13.01% year on year, mainly driven by YoY healthy volumes registered in the automotive after-market, OEMs, and export markets.
Profit before tax for the quarter was at Rs 328.66 crore, registering a growth of 23.45% from Rs 266.24 crore reported in the same period a year ago.
Harshavardhana Gourineni, executive director, Automotive & Industrial Batteries said, Our revenue and profit numbers are a testament to our sustained growth story. In the last quarter, we have seen good traction from our international operations. This was spearheaded by the offtake of our indigenously designed AGM batteries. We are betting big on growing this space in the coming months.
Jayadev Galla, chairman & managing director of ARE&M said, We have witnessed significant growth in revenue and profits quarter on quarter, which is a direct testament of our customers trust in our products quality and reliability. The rapid movement in the Li-ion initiatives and the ongoing new additions to our advanced lead acid battery portfolio promise a very strong future.

We have also begun to successfully forge customer alliances, which gives us confidence on the steps we have taken so far.
