Samvardhana Motherson International continues its rally amid robust earnings, a record-breaking order book, and expanding non-auto businesses, boosting investor confidence and broker forecasts for sustained growth.
Samvardhana Motherson International extended its recent rally on Friday, rising more than 9% to lead the BSE 100 gainers as investors continued to reward the auto parts maker’s expanding order book and stronger non-auto businesses. Including the latest move, the stock has climbed roughly 32% over the past three months, underlining optimism that the company can keep compounding even as the broader auto cycle remains uneven.
The momentum follows a solid set of numbers. According to Business Standard, consolidated revenue rose 17% year on year, supported by a 27% increase in wiring harness sales, a 20% rise in modules and polymer products and a 31% gain in emerging businesses. Economic Times reported that in the March quarter the company’s consolidated revenue from operations increased 17% to ₹34,309 crore, while full-year FY26 revenue rose 11% to ₹1,26,104 crore.
Profitability also improved. Business Standard said operating profit increased 25% and margins widened 65 basis points to 8.8%, helped by cost control and operating efficiencies. The same report noted that the quarterly margin gain was partly offset by higher copper and crude-linked polymer costs, which are passed through with a lag, while staff and other expenses weighed on sequential performance.
The bigger story remains the pipeline of future work. Business Standard reported that the company’s order book stood at $87.2 billion as of September 2025, with electric-vehicle platforms accounting for 22% of that total. It also said management expects growth to be supported by a recovery in commercial vehicle demand, a ramp-up in consumer electronics and contributions from recent acquisitions. Separately, Nomura said the order book had reached a record $96 billion, reinforcing the view that the group has plenty of visibility for the next few years.
Brokerages have responded by lifting price targets. Emkay Research raised its FY28 earnings estimates by 8% to 10% and increased its target price to about ₹180, while JM Financial and Motilal Oswal also kept a positive stance, citing consumer electronics expansion, aerospace opportunities and the benefits of consolidation in the auto component industry. For now, the market appears to be betting that Samvardhana Motherson’s mix of scale, diversification and acquisition-led growth can keep driving earnings and support further gains.
