The company has outlined an investment plan of about Rs 10,000 crore through 2032 to build lithium cell and battery pack manufacturing capabilities. While the initial roadmap envisaged 16 GWh capacity, the company sees potential to scale beyond this depending on demand trends.
Management told the media that domestically manufactured cells may remain costlier in the near term, with a premium of at least 15% over imports, as the local supply chain ecosystem is still evolving. Economies of scale are expected to improve once capacity reaches 8-10 GWh.
Amara Raja is also diversifying its end-use segments beyond electric vehicles to include applications such as power tools and equipment, aiming to reduce demand concentration risks.
The development comes as India’s lithium-ion manufacturing ecosystem gradually builds up, with multiple players planning capacity additions in the coming years.
The company's board will consider Q4 results on 25 May 2026. On a consolidated basis, Amara Raja Energy & Mobility's net profit declined 53.03% to Rs 140.15 crore while net sales rose 4.21% to Rs 3410.15 crore in Q3 December 2025 over Q3 December 2024.

Global Markets:
Asia market declined on Friday, mirroring Wall Street’s losses as renewed concerns over stretched valuations in artificial intelligence (AI) stocks weighed on sentiment.
Investors across the region are now awaiting China’s October trade data, expected later in the day. Media reports indicate that exports may have grown just 3% year-on-year, slowing sharply from 8.3% in September, while imports are forecast to fall 3.2% after rising 7.4% previously.
The slowdown reflects weak domestic demand, prolonged pressure from the property downturn, rising job insecurity, and the fading impact of earlier consumption stimulus.
On Wall Street, AI-linked stocks extended their recent declines, dragging major indices lower. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 398.70 points (0.84%) to 46,912.30, while the S&P 500 dropped 1.12% to 6,720.32.
The Nasdaq Composite tumbled 1.9% to 23,053.99, with the Nasdaq 100 down more than 2% for the week — its steepest decline since early April.
Adding to investor unease, October layoffs surged to 153,000, nearly triple September’s figure and 175% higher year-on-year, according to Challenger, Gray & Christmas.
The spike in job cuts, combined with the ongoing U.S. government shutdown, now over a month old, has further clouded the outlook for the U.S. economy.
Total expenses rose 10.53% YoY to Rs 3,128.50 crore during the quarter. Employee benefits expense stood at Rs 223.10 crore (up 17.5%), finance cost was at Rs 8.26 crore (down 37.09% YoY), and other expenses were at Rs 481.58 crore (up 25.39% YoY) during the period under review.
Harshavardhana Gourineni, executive director of automotive and industrial, said, “Our continued growth in the OEM segment underscores our unwavering commitment to quality and reliability. In the telecom sector, we are seeing a decline in lead-acid battery demand, though our lithium solutions continue to gain strong traction—clearly reflecting the sector’s shift toward advanced technologies. Additionally, global trade and tariff uncertainties have weighed on our export performance this quarter. That said, we remain confident in our ability to navigate these challenges and accelerate growth across our portfolio in the coming periods.”
Vikramadithya Gourineni, executive director of new energy business, said, “We are seeing consistent progress on our infrastructure development. We are confident our Customer Qualification Plant (CQP) for indigenous cell manufacturing will be operational by Q4 of this FY, which will greatly accelerate our cell manufacturing plans.”
Jayadev Galla, chairman and managing director, said, “We continue to see robust performance on the back of our Automotive Lead Acid Business, which has delivered strong results. Even though it has been a tumultuous quarter with tariffs and global uncertainties, our performance has been solid, and we look forward to making better gains.”
Meanwhile, the board of directors has approved an interim dividend of Rs 5.40 per equity share, equivalent to 540% of the Rs 1 face value, for FY26. The payout is scheduled on or before 5 December 2025.
