Commenting on the results Mr. Anmol Jain, MD, Lumax Auto Technologies said "All the major OEM's have reported a mixed growth due to multiple concerns like mismatch of festive season, variation in fuel price, new insurance norms, tighter liquidity, higher interest cost, moderate economic activity etc. leading to passive sentiments among the consumers. There were price hikes as well as discounts strategy during the festive seasons but unable to make greater impact on the end customer behavior.
Despite soft performance by the industry, we are delighted to report a healthy growth of 31% YoY basis for the 9MFY19 on back of continued progress in every quarter. Our operational efficiencies have been enhanced over the past few quarters led by multiple cost control programmes. Our diverse product mix, strong brand recall and long-lasting relationship with our customer has been our forte behind our success. We foresee our team will continue to outperform industry in coming quarters."
