The company also shared that profit before tax rose to Rs 286.54 crore, while net profit after tax stood at Rs 185.22 crore, up 55 per cent from last year.

Domestic sales rose by 26 per cent, driven by strong demand for popular models like Urbania, Traveller, and Trax. Force Motors said over 90 per cent of its total sales come from the domestic market.

“Our focus on customer needs, strong market momentum, and better internal efficiency helped drive this growth,” said Prasan Firodia, Managing Director of Force Motors.

Back in March, Force Motors announced a big win — a Rs 4,150 crore defence order to supply 2,978 Gurkha Light Vehicles to the Indian Army and Air Force. This deal has helped boost investor confidence and added to the stock’s sharp rally in recent months.

The company also said it has no debt, highlighting strong financial management. In addition to its own vehicle lineup, Force Motors also builds engines for Mercedes-Benz and BMW in India. Its products are exported to regions including the Middle East, Latin America, Asia, and Africa.
