At a Glance
Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) is the auto-industrial beast that sells SUVs like Thar, tractors that pull half of India, and now EVs that try to compete with Tesla wannabes. FY25 saw PAT jump to ₹14,904 crore, revenue zoom to ₹1.68 lakh crore, and market cap near ₹4 lakh crore. At P/E 28.9, this stock is priced like it’s already the king of EVs. Promoter holding? A mere 18.4%—the public and FIIs practically co-own this beast.
1. Introduction
From post-Independence jeep assembly to becoming India’s SUV overlord, M&M has done it all. Today, it is a diversified empire covering autos, farm equipment, tech, finance, logistics, and renewable energy. The company is literally everywhere—except in your kitchen (for now).
FY25 was the year of record tractor sales, EV buzz, and a 58.96% stake acquisition in SML Isuzu to dominate the commercial vehicle space. The stock trades just below its all-time high, with investors betting big on EV rollouts and continued SUV dominance.
