The export turnover of Rico Auto Industries during the year was ₹326 crore, compared to ₹426 crore in the previous year, a drop of ₹100 crore due to the global slowdown in EV sales. The company added new export businesses from BMW, GKN, Bendix, Knorr Bremse, Daimler, and Cummins, which are expected to grow exports by 20% in the current financial year.
Despite headwinds, the company anticipates good growth over the next few years, driven by an increase in demand for components for Hybrid, Electric, and ICE vehicles for domestic and export markets. The company has new additional confirmed orders of ₹720 crore peak sales per annum from Maruti, TATA, Toyota, Hero MotoCorp, Musashi, Knorr Bremse, AISIN, GKN, etc., over and above current production.
