Rationale
The ratings reaffirmation reflects the strong financial profile of Mahindra & Mahindra Limited (M&M), characterised by healthy
free cash flows,driven by the robustgrowth in its diversified business across varied sectors, profitability in its core automotive
and tractor businesses and superior liquidity with sizeable cash and bank balances along with liquid investments. The ratings
favourably factor in the performance of the farm equipment (FES) and automotive (auto) segments, which provided stability
to overall profitability over the years, despite cyclical performances in the respective segments. Additionally, M&M has a large
investment portfolio of Group entities, some of which are also listed in the stock markets. The high market value of these
investments additionally provide cushion to M&M's overall financial flexibility.M&M has maintained its dominant position in
the domestic tractor industry, with a market share1of 44.3% in 4MFY2027(43.6% in FY2026). ICRA believes that the multi-
brand strategy of Mahindra, Swaraj, Trakstar andOJA,is likely to help sustain itsmarket share over the medium term. In its
global FES business, M&M is present in four out of the five largest tractor markets in the world. While certain international
farm operations continue to face challenges, the companyhas undertaken restructuring measures,including liquidation of the
agricultural machinery business in Japan and disposal of select operations in Turkey and Europe. These actions are expected
to reduce losses and improve the profitability profile of the international farm business over the medium term.
In the domestic utility vehicles (UV) business, despite increasing competition, M&M has emerged as the second-largest player
(in terms of volumes),with its market share standing at 20.3% in Q1 FY2027 (21.3% in FY2026 and 19.7% in FY2025). This was
supported by healthy demand for its new launches like XUV 7XO and Bolero Neo, among others.While the new models are
expected to support M&M's overall volumes, going forward, a further improvement in its market share is challenging amid
successful launches by its competitors. It also enjoys a strong position in the light commercial vehicle (LCV) goods market
(especially 2.0-3.5 tonnes (T) segment), with a 52.0% share in Q1 FY2027 (52.3% in FY2026). ICRA also notes that M&Macquired
a controlling stake in SML Mahindra Limited (erstwhile SML Isuzu Limited) inFY2026 and held a 58.97% equity stake as on June
30, 2026. The acquisition was a strategic step towards strengthening the company's presence in the >3.5-tonne commercial
vehicle (CV) segment and is expected to support scale benefits and operational synergies over the medium term. Further, the
expected forthcomingintegration of M&M's trucks and buses business with SML Mahindra willsupport operating synergies,
improve market presence across the commercial vehicle segment and provide scale benefits over the medium term.

Insights that empower
As per ICRA's estimates, M&M'scapital expenditure (capex) plans of Rs. 20,000-25,000 crore towards auto and farm segments
over FY2027 and FY2028, willbe funded by internal accruals and existing cash and liquid investments. The capex programme
is primarily directed towards product development, expansion in the electric vehicle (EV) segment and overall capacity
expansion, including the proposed greenfield facility at Nagpur, which is expected to support M&M's long-term growth plans.
Although the planned investments are large, steady cash flow generation from its core business, along with the financial
flexibility enjoyed by the Group and its comfortable credit profile partly mitigate the risksrelated to the incremental fund
deployment. M&M was net debt-free at the standalone and consolidated levels [excluding Mahindra & Mahindra Financial
Services Limited (MMFSL)]as on March 31, 2026. ICRA expects its leverage to remain low in the medium term, despite sizeable
capex and investment plans. The company's liquidity positioncontinues to besuperior, supported by its large, free cash and
bank balances as well as liquid investments as on March 31, 2026.
ICRA draws comfort from M&M's track record of successfully managing its portfolio of businesses.However, its continued
success while maintaining its strong credit profile would remain a key rating sensitivity. Sustained strengthening of M&M's UV
portfolio through new product launches amid increasing competition, achieving success on its EV launches and sustenance of
its performance would be critical for maintaining its credit
