Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL) Consensus Expectations for Q3FY19E:
Revenue: Rs19,465cr (up 1% yoy, down 13% qoq); MSIL will report flat revenue yoy (down 13% qoq); the lowest in multiple quarters, due to weak volume in Q3FY19 (down 1% yoy, 12% qoq). The volume mix was favourable during the quarter; with lower proportion of Mini segment and higher proportion of compact segment, Ciaz and vans. However, realization growth will be restricted to 2% yoy (down 2% qoq) due to high year-end discounting.
EBITDA: Rs2,582cr (down 15% yoy, 25% qoq).
EBITDA margin: 13.3% (contraction of 249bps yoy, 203bps qoq); Weak volumes and higher commodity prices will reduce operating leverage, leading to 249bps yoy margin contraction (203bps qoq) in Q3FY19.
PAT: Rs1,907cr (up 6% yoy, down 15% qoq).

L&T Consensus estimates for Q3FY19E:
Revenue – Rs32,952cr, up 15% yoy, driven by strong execution mainly in infrastructure segment further supported by hydrocarbon business
EBITDA – Rs3,653cr, up 16% yoy, led by higher revenue amid stable operating expenses
EBITDA Margin – 11%, marginal expansion of 15bps yoy
PAT – Rs1,899cr, up 26% yoy
