The auto major had posted a net profit of 1,391.1 crore in the July-September quarter of the previous fiscal.

Total revenue from operations rose by 10.34 per cent to 18,755.6 crore for the second quarter as against 16,997.9 crore in the same period of 2019-20, MSI said in a statement.

During the second quarter, the performance improved on the back of some demand recovery and gradual improvement in supply conditions, the auto major said.

"Production across the company's factories and supply chain was progressively ramped up consistent with our policy of maximum safety of the people and following all prescribed protocols to ensure this," it added.
