Expectations
 
* Expect tepid growth in earnings due to lower dispatches in Q3 and adverse product mix (lower motorcycles, higher scooters; motorcycles now constitute 37% of volumes versus 40% QoQ )

* TVS Motor has underperformed the 2-wheeler sector in Q3 with only 1% YoY growth in volumes. (Bajaj Auto volume growth 13.6%, Hero Motocorp volume growth 11.3% YoY) 

* Alert: TVS Motor had hit record volumes in previous quarter

* Management had indicated that post November, dispatches slowed down considerably.

* Margins to decline QoQ led by an adverse product mix (more scooters, less motorcycles)

* However, raw material / sales to decline due to raw materail cost coming off, last quarter was at 75.5%

- Realisations to grow 6% YoY, 1.4% QoQ to Rs 33400/unit
- High depreciation and taxes to further impact profits
