The company’s revenue for Q2 FY25 stood at ₹6,760 crore, reflecting a substantial 11.1% increase compared to ₹6,087.6 crore in Q2 FY24. 

This revenue growth was driven by higher sales across various segments, including the tyre manufacturing business, but the overall profitability took a hit due to higher costs.

MRF’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) fell 14% yearly to ₹973.6 crore. EBITDA margins contracted by over 400 basis points, standing at 14.4%, down from 18.5% in the corresponding quarter last year.
