Hyundai Motor India Ltd Sales Surge 10% in September While Stock Falls 2.83% Amid Profit Booking

Mumbai, 1 October 2025: Hyundai Motor India Limited (NSE: HYUNDAI, BSE: 544274) reported a robust 10% year-on-year increase in September sales, reaching 70,347 units, even as its shares declined 2.83% to ₹2,511.20 in early trading on Wednesday.

Domestic Sales Marginally Up at 51,547 Units as SUV Preference Drives Growth

Hyundai’s domestic sales in September rose slightly to 51,547 units from 51,101 units a year ago, reflecting a 0.87% year-on-year growth. SUVs continued to dominate, achieving a record 72.4% of domestic volumes (37,313 units). The CRETA recorded its highest-ever monthly sales at 18,861 units, while the VENUE saw its best performance in 20 months with 11,484 units sold. Rising consumer preference for SUVs, combined with festive demand, appears to have underpinned these gains.

Export Sales Skyrocket 44% to 18,800 Units, Highest in 33 Months

Exports climbed sharply to 18,800 units, up 43.5% from 13,100 units in September 2024, marking the highest monthly tally in 33 months. Cumulative exports for April–September 2025 also rose 17% year-on-year to 99,540 units, highlighting Hyundai’s expanding international footprint. Management credited this surge to increased global demand and the company’s strengthened manufacturing capabilities in India.

Profit Booking Triggers Stock Decline Despite Strong Sales

Despite the positive sales figures, Hyundai shares faced selling pressure, reflecting short-term profit booking. As of 12:14 p.m. IST, the stock was trading at ₹2,511.20, down ₹73.20 (-2.83%), with an intraday range of ₹2,508.90 – ₹2,607.70. The stock has a market capitalisation of ₹2.04 lakh crore, a P/E ratio of 36.97, and a 52-week high/low of ₹2,890 / ₹1,541.70. The dividend yield stands at 0.84%, with a quarterly dividend of ₹5.27 per share.

Hyundai’s September performance highlights the resilience of SUV-led demand in India and a strong export momentum that continues to drive overall sales growth. While short-term stock volatility may arise from profit booking, operational metrics and market expansion trends reflect sustained momentum across domestic and international segments.
