TVS Motor Company share price rallied over 2% on Tuesday, extending gains for the third consecutive session. The gains in TVS Motor shares follow the broader market rally, with the Nifty Auto index rising 2.7%.

Analysts believe TVS Motor Company is poised to be a significant beneficiary of the electric vehicle (EV) industry’s growth, supported by its robust pipeline of upcoming EV launches.

Meanwhile, media reports stated the Ministry of Heavy Industries (MHI) has reinstated subsidies for electric three-wheelers under the PM E-Drive scheme.

The government had temporarily halted the disbursement of incentives for electric three-wheelers after the annual subsidy allocation for FY25 was fully utilized. However, the Ministry of Heavy Industries (MHI) has now allocated additional funds for this segment under the broader framework of the PM Electric Drive Revolution in Innovative Vehicle Enhancement (PM E-DRIVE) Scheme, according to reports.

The PM E-DRIVE Scheme, recently approved by the Cabinet with a financial outlay of ₹10,900 crore, became effective on October 1, 2024, and will remain operational until March 31, 2026.

The outlook for the two-wheelers and three-wheeler manufacturer, TVS Motor Company, seems positive amid the EV focus, analysts said.

“TVS Motor Company seems to be better placed among the electric two-wheeler and three-wheeler companies. The company’s iQube Electric model has seen decent demand. TVS Motor’s fundamentals also look good. Hence, we are bullish on TVS Motor Company shares. The stock can see ₹2,900 level in a one year time horizon,” Anshul Jain, Head of Research at Lakshmishree Investment and Securities.

TVS Motor Company Financials

TVS Motor Company recorded its highest quarterly revenue during the second quarter of FY25, with a growth of 13% YoY on the back of strong volume growth, a superior product mix, and better realization. The company’s net profit in Q2FY25 rose 23.5% YoY to ₹663 crore.

The company saw two-wheeler domestic volumes growth of 15% YoY, outperforming the industry’s 11% YoY growth. TVS also gained market share in retail growth.

Analysts anticipate TVS Motor’s total volumes to rise by 13% YoY in FY25 driven by favourable festive season, a recovery in rural demand, and an expanded international presence in regions like the Middle East, LATAM, and ASEAN.

“Although all models qualify for the PLI scheme, the company has yet to recognize PLI benefits in its income statement. We expect these benefits to have a cumulative positive impact on the financials by year-end,” said Shridhar Kallani, Auto Analyst at Axis Securities.
