Bajaj Auto Ltd

Dear Shareholders,

It is my honour and privilege to report back to you with exciting news on the year gone by. Your Company has posted record results for FY2024. The resilient, competitive and profitable growth in the year has propelled the financial results to new highs.

Let me outline some of these achievements -

1. Revenue clocked an all-time high at ? 44,685 crores, up 23% year-on-year, arising from the record sales of both vehicles and spares.

2. At ?8,825 crores, EBITDA registered its highest ever, growing a solid 35% over previous year.

3. EBITDA margin at 1 9.7% was up a significant +180 basis points over previous year driven by dynamic results management, richer product mix and operating leverage. What is also noteworthy is that your Company delivered this accretion after absorbing the significant investments on building its electric scooters business, underscoring the commitment to its growth.

4. Profit Before Tax at ? 9,822 crores and Profit After Tax at ? 7,479 crore, both up 33% over last year, also hit new peaks.

5. The strong track record of cash generation was upheld as nearly ? 6,600 crores of Free Cash Flow was added this year, the highest ever and up 45% compared to last year.

Apart from the records, another hallmark of the performance was the consistency of growth across all guarters.

This reflects your Company's resilient business model, where a strong domestic performance more than made up for muted exports which continued to be impacted by the challenging context in overseas markets.

As a result of the landmark performance, the Balance Sheet of your Company remains very healthy with surplus cash and cash eguivalent as on 31 March 2024 standing at ? 1 6,386 crores - this after making capital investments of ~?800 crores and paying a significant ~?8,900 crores to shareholders between dividend and the share buyback. This financial position allows your Company to invest sufficiently for its competitive and sustainable future growth as well as reward its shareholders from time to time.

Across our businesses, I am pleased to say that there is much to cheer about.

Our domestic business delivered its largest revenue, on sustained momentum that led to double-digit growth for eight successive guarters. This was driven by robust volume-led growth across all businesses and market share gains.

• Your Company's domestic motorcycle sales by volume grew by 20% in FY2024, compared to the previous year. It maintained its strong competitive performance and, thanks to the Pulsar, emerged as the largest

1 25cc+ player of the year.

• FY2024 was by far the biggest year for our 1 25cc+ segment, where led by Pulsar models, our growth was eight times that of the rest of the industry. Your Company has been at the forefront of driving the trend of premiumization across the industry.

• KTM delivered its best ever sales.

• The introduction of Triumph has added strength to the premium portfolio, delivering over 40,000 units in the eight months post its launch, with the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X experience being made available across 56 cities domestically and 1 6 export markets by the end of the year.

• Chetak electric scooters delivered strong results, staying resolute to its journey of expansion over the last couple of years. At over 1 15,000 units, sales in the year were up 3X over the previous one, enabling it climb to the #3 position in the industry, up from #7 last year

• Domestic sales of commercial vehicles surged ahead, closing the year with historic high volumes that grew significantly ahead of the industry. The year also saw the successful rollout of electric three-wheelers, with segment leadership in early launch cities leading to the acceleration of network expansion across the country.

As for Exports, your Company had to navigate continued rough macro-economic conditions across its key markets. The business acted decisively to adapt and manage currency constraints and market volatility. Against this backdrop, it stepped up its sales in the second half to close the full year with flat revenue. The robust growth in Latin American markets which achieved its highest sales, further aided by the Middle East, partially alleviated the slowdown in Africa and Asia.

Now coming to how I see the next year.

It is anticipated that India, now the fastest growing economy in the world, will achieve upwards of 7% real GDP growth in FY2024, and various forecasts expect this buoyancy to continue in FY2025.

With stable CPI inflation at around 5%, we envisage double digit nominal GDP growth. In such a milieu and barring any unforeseen event, I would expect domestic demand to continue to pave the way for another year of growth up ahead.

In this context, to deliver another year of competitive and profitable performance, the priorities for our business are clear:

• Sustain the momentum on our domestic business and continue to drive growth across all segments

• Navigate the challenging international landscape and stay the course on recovering our exports volumes

• Maintain the thrust on differentiated product innovation, impactful in-market activation and superior customer experience

• Expand our capacity, capabilities and network for our new businesses, namely Chetak electric scooters, electric three wheelers and Triumph motorcycles

• Build and develop our strategic growth enablers through our wholly owned subsidiaries -

- Chetak Technology Limited - as a powerhouse for disruptive and EV technology

- Bajaj Auto Credit Limited - as a captive financing arm (that commenced business in January 2024) which seeks complete its national presence across the sales network by the end of March 2025

• Continue focus on dynamic financial management to ensure competitive and profitable growth with strong cash flow generation

On behalf of you, our shareholders, I offer our sincerest congratulations to your Company's Managing Director, Shri Rajiv Bajaj, and his management team and workers for delivering such a record performance in FY2024.

Given the state of the business and with such a passionate team that is capable of making a difference,

I have absolute confidence that your Company is well placed to deliver yet another big year in FY2025.

I would like to thank you, our shareholders, for your support and continued trust.

We appreciate it greatly.

Yours sincerely,
