Following the update, various brokerage firms have also commented on the EVs.
Global brokerage firm Macquarie believes that it was a strong BEV model launched at an attractive pricing while Nomura stated that M&M has addressed the shortcomings of an EV in India, believing that M&M products are better than global competition in many respects.
Meanwhile Jefferies found the vehicles to be well-designed, feature-rich, attractively priced, and likely to provide a compelling proposition to customers.
Domestic brokerage firm Nuvama retained a buy call on the stock with a target price of Rs 3,700 stating that they have currently built in BEV volumes at 48,000 units in FY26E and M&M remains one of their top picks, led by expectations of revenue/core earnings CAGR at 15%/18% over FY24–27E.
Further, Motilal Oswal too, retained its buy call with a target price of INR 2,985.
“We estimate MM to post a CAGR of ~13%/16%/15.5% in revenue/EBITDA/PAT over FY24-27E. While MM has outperformed its own targets of earnings growth and RoE of 18% in FY24 (18.9% in 1HFY25), it remains committed to delivering 15- 20% EPS growth and 18% ROE, ensuring sustained profitability and shareholder value,” said Motilal in its report.
