Why revenue grew

The company says growth came from strong double-digit growth in aftermarket and OEM sales of automotive batteries and from the Home Energy business. Executive Director Harshavardhana Gourineni said robust OEM demand across four-wheelers and two-wheelers, with healthy aftermarket volumes, lifted domestic revenue by over 10%, while industrial UPS grew over 7%. He added that geopolitical shipping disruptions have temporarily limited its ability to fulfil international demand.
