Export sales increased 2% year-on-year and 6% quarter-on-quarter to ₹555 crore.

The Board of Directors reviewed and approved the unaudited financial results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026, at its meeting held in November.
Adegbile Adewunmi, Managing Director, Cummins India Limited, said demand remained healthy across key domestic markets, supported by data centres, manufacturing, real estate and growth in the distribution business. Export sales also increased compared with the previous quarter.
He said commodity and freight cost inflation, along with changes in product mix, affected margins during the quarter. The benefits of pricing measures are expected to become visible progressively. The company will continue to focus on order execution, price realisation and cost management.
Looking ahead, Cummins India expects demand across its key domestic and export markets to remain steady. However, geopolitical uncertainty, inflation, commodity price movements and changing supply-chain conditions continue to influence the operating environment. The company said it would maintain its focus on operational efficiency, disciplined execution and prudent capital deployment. Its balance sheet and cash conversion cycle provide support for continued investment while managing costs.
