According to IIFL Securities, TVS outperformed the two-wheeler 2W industry on margin performance in the downturn, improving EBITDA margins over FY18-22.

TVS reported 1QFY23 EBITDA above our estimates, Kotak Institutional Equities, and expects that the company’s profitability to improve led by a recent correction in commodity prices and cost-control measures, resulting in 31% EPS CAGR over FY2022-25E.
However, the company’s domestic ICE scooter portfolio can get impacted as EV adoption picks up, the brokerage noted, retaining a Sell rating with a revised target of Rs 775 per share. The stock trades at 22.5X FY2024E standalone EPS.
