Sona BLW Precision Forgings (Sona Comstar) has announced its financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2025. The company reported its highest-ever quarterly net profit, despite a year-on-year decline in revenue for the fourth quarter.

In Q4 FY25, the company recorded a net profit of ₹164 crore, reflecting a 10 per cent year-on-year (YoY) increase. Revenue for the quarter stood at ₹868 crore, marking a 2 per cent decline. On the other hand, EBITDA was ₹235 crore with a margin of 27.1 per cent, 5 per cent lower compared to the same quarter last year. Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) revenue grew 8 per cent YoY to ₹294 crore and contributed 35 per cent of the total revenue for the quarter.

For the full financial year, Sona Comstar posted a revenue of ₹3,555 crore, up 12 per cent YoY. Net profit for FY25 was ₹601 crore, up 16 per cent, while BEV revenue grew 38 per cent and accounted for 36 per cent of the company’s total revenue. EBITDA for the year stood at ₹975 crore with a margin of 27.4 per cent.

The company’s net order book reached ₹242 crore as of 31 March 2025, with 77 per cent of this attributed to EV programmes. Sona Comstar added four new EV programmes and two new customers in FY25, taking its total to 58 programmes from 32 customers.

Order wins and new product development

During the quarter, Sona Comstar received an order from a North American electric vehicle manufacturer to supply rotor-embedded differential sub-assemblies and epicyclic geartrains for a new passenger vehicle. This programme added ₹152 crore to the order book and is expected to enter production in Q4 FY26.

The company also launched a new product, the Steering Bevel Box, and secured an order from a global commercial vehicle OEM. This order is valued at ₹110 crore, with production expected to begin in Q3 FY26.

Vivek Vikram Singh, MD and Group CEO, Sona Comstar, said, “In 4Q FY25, we achieved our highest ever quarterly net profit, despite experiencing a revenue decline due to the transition to a new model for one of our large customers, which impacted our supplies last quarter. The production of the new model has been ramping up since March.”

“With substantial advancements in AI, 3D perception, and control technologies, coupled with decreasing compute costs, we expect rapid adoption of humanoid robots over the next decade. We are leveraging our core capabilities to develop components and sub-systems for these humanoid robots,” Singh further added.
