Business model

CIE Automotive India (NSE: CIEINDIA, BSE 532756) makes forgings, stampings, aluminium and iron castings, gears, composites and magnets for vehicle OEMs and Tier-1s. It reports on a December year: FY25A is calendar 2025. In CY2025, consolidated continuing revenue was 9,406cr and operating EBITDA before other income was 1,362cr (14.5%). Statutory segment revenue was 6,143cr in India and 3,264cr in Europe, which includes Mexico from 2025. Indian customers are weighted toward light vehicles, two-wheelers and tractors. Mahindra & Mahindra accounted for 1,893cr, or 20.1% of revenue, in CY2025. The company is 65.70% owned by Participaciones Internacionales Autometal Dos, part of Spain's CIE Automotive group. Steel and aluminium costs are largely passed through to customers with a lag, while energy, tools and labour are not. Margins therefore depend on utilisation and on recovering cost inflation through commercial negotiation.
