Udaipur, 28 October (Udaipur Kiran) — JK Tyre & Industries Ltd, one of India’s leading tyre manufacturers, reported a robust performance for the second quarter ended September 30, 2025, with net profit soaring 54% year-on-year to ₹223 crore. The company’s consolidated EBITDA stood at ₹536 crore, reflecting an improved margin of 13.3%, driven by higher sales volumes, softening input costs, and better operational efficiencies.
Domestic and Export Growth Drive Performance
Commenting on the results, Dr. Raghupati Singhania, Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of JK Tyre, said,
“JK Tyre performed well in Q2 FY26 supported by sustained growth momentum. Domestic markets registered a 15% growth in volumes, driven by a notable uptick across all segments.”
Export volumes also rose 13% quarter-on-quarter, despite global headwinds and uncertainty around US tariff rates. Dr. Singhania highlighted that the growth was fuelled by strong product quality, deeper market penetration, and the introduction of high-margin products catering to new geographies.
Operational Highlights
Both Cavendish (India) and Tornel (Mexico)—subsidiaries of JK Tyre—delivered strong performances during the quarter, contributing significantly to the consolidated results.
Dr. Singhania added,
“The improved operational performance reflects higher efficiencies, better cost management, and softening of raw material prices. GST 2.0 is indeed a very progressive step that will boost demand and ultimately accelerate economic growth.”
Positive Outlook for the Auto Sector
The company remains optimistic about the outlook for the automobile and tyre industries, with high-frequency indicators pointing towards a continued recovery in economic activity.
“We believe the automobile sector is on a strong growth trajectory and will drive higher demand for tyres across all categories,” said Dr. Singhania.
ESG Leadership Recognition
JK Tyre also reaffirmed its sustainability leadership by retaining the top-tier CareEdge ESG 1+ rating, marking a benchmark achievement in environmental, social, and governance standards.
“This ESG rating reflects our commitment to responsible growth through investments in renewable energy, decarbonisation technologies, and robust governance practices,” Dr. Singhania noted.
