ZF Commercial Vehicle Reports Marginal Decline in Q2 Profit 

ZF Commercial Vehicle Control Systems India Limited reported a modest decline in net profit for the quarter ended September 2025, even as the company registered higher revenues during the period. The commercial vehicle components manufacturer posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 108.28 crore for Q2 FY2026, down 0.77% from Rs 109.12 crore recorded in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

The company's consolidated revenue from operations stood at Rs 913.24 crore for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, marking a marginal increase of 0.26% compared to Rs 910.91 crore in the same quarter last year.
