Emkay Global Financial Services' Report on Bajaj Auto:
Bajaj volumes for the quarter (-12 percent YoY/ +3 percent Q-o-Q), with export volumes now 45 percent of total sales. Key margin drivers in the quarter (1) Price hike during the quarter should offset higher commodity cost (2) lower proportion of Pulsar sales and likely higher promotional expenditures should impact margins. Expect US dollar realisation of Rs 61/USD for the quarter (flat Q-o-Q).
