Hero MotoCorp investors just did a celebratory wheelie in the markets today as the stock accelerated by 5% to hit ₹4,260.40 on the bumpy racetrack that is Dalal Street. Why? Because India’s two-wheeler kingpin just gave a masterclass in “how to surprise the Street without breaking a sweat.”
Let’s dissect this ride — gears, brakes, and all.
🧾 What Fueled the Rally?
Hero dropped its Q4 FY25 earnings like a surprise power-up:
| Metric | Q4 FY25 | Q4 FY24 | % Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net Profit | ₹1,081 Cr | ₹1,016 Cr | +6% |
| EBITDA Margin | 14.7% | 13.3% | +140 bps |
| Revenue | ₹9,519 Cr | ₹8,659 Cr | +10% |
TL;DR? Strong profits, better margins, and the perfect excuse for a sugar rush.
💸 Dividend Toh Banta Hai!
In true Indian uncle fashion, Hero said “Lo beta, kuch meetha ho jaaye” and declared a ₹65 per share final dividend. That’s like offering rasgulla plus gulab jamun during Diwali. Investors obviously responded with “aur do, aur do!”
🧠
But Wait… Didn’t It Fall 30%?
Yes. This baby once kissed ₹6,246 per share, before taking a dive like a Bollywood hero in a climax fight scene. But since its lows around ₹3,300, it’s already up 29% — and the Street smells a comeback.
⚡ EV Transition: Still in First Gear?
Hero’s EV brand Vida is still a toddler in a race with giants like Ola Electric and Ather. But the company claims expansion plans are underway with more cities being added and dealer networks strengthening. If they play their cards right, this could be the Hero’s second innings.
