In FY 2026, the company’s net profit increased 14 per cent to Rs 5,268 crore, while revenue from operations increased 15 per cent to Rs 46,830 crore from last year.

Hero recorded sales volume of 17.14 lakh units in the fourth quarter, up 24 per cent in the same period last year, while in FY2026 the volumes grew 10 per cent to 64.69 lakh units.

EBITDA margin for FY2026 stood at 14.7 per cent, reflecting an improvement of 30 basis points from last year, driven by favourable product mix and cost efficiencies.

FY 2026 consolidated revenue for the year stood at Rs. 47,411 crore, representing a 16 per cent growth year-on-year, while net profit rose 32 per cent to Rs 5,776 crore.

The year’s performance was anchored by consistent gains in the core ICE business, with Hero MotoCorp expanding its market share across key segments, the company said.

Growth was broad-based across 100cc – 125cc, scooters and premium motorcycle segments, powered by a series of product refreshes and the Company’s highest-ever festive season, it added.

VIDA, Hero MotoCorp’s Emerging Mobility Business, delivered a landmark year – reporting highest retail with record year-on-year growth of 190 per cent.

Hero Moto Corp’s Global Business closed FY2026 at an all-time high, with 40 per cent year-on-year growth.

“The growth was broad-based, driven by a strong premium and EV product portfolio and momentum across both, domestic and global markets. As we look ahead, we are encouraged by the supportive government policies, positive consumer loyalty and sentiment, and the accelerating shift towards electrification and premiumisation. These factors position us well for FY27, as we continue to lead the industry’s transition towards sustainable and innovative mobility solutions,”  Harshavaradhan Chitale, Chief Executive Officer, Hero MotoCorp, said in a statement.

The company declared a final dividend of Rs 75 per share.
