Business Model

Eicher Motors is an automobile firm that primarily focuses on trucks and buses, or commercial
vehicles. The corporation is still primarily in the commercial vehicle market.
However, certain consumers of the Royal Enfield motorcycle brand, which Eicher Motors regularly
carries, may view some of its unnoticed work in the consumer retail products industry as questionable.

As a result, even though the manufacturing and automotive sectors may be the primary emphasis of
Eicher Motor's overall business strategy, certain of its components may also be related to other
sectors, such as the tractor and motorcycle industries. As a result, Eicher Motors' business model may
be classified as manufacturing or automobile.
Royal Enfield and VE Commercial Vehicles (VECV), two successful firms under the parent company of
Eicher Motors, are driving growth in the motorcycle and commercial vehicle sectors. Royal Enfield's
motorcycles have managed to drive sales growth of 9% to 9,12,732 units, with a 14% increase in the
domestic market. From bustling Indian cities to iconic American highways, Royal Enfield’s motorcycles
are seen crossing diverse terrains. With 18 company-owned stores and more than 850 dealers in India,
it caters to its domestic crowd, while its presence in over 60 countries, including well-established
markets like the U.S., UK, regions of Europe and Latin America, Middle East, and Southeast Asia,
showcases its global appeal.
Sales of VECV vehicles rose 7.5% to 85,560, while sales of trucks and buses with the Eicher brand saw a
23.1% increase. Volvo trucks and buses saw a 63.8% rise in sales.

Manufacturing & Networks

Eicher Motor Limited (EML) operates two significant manufacturing facilities located in Chennai, in
Thiruvottiyur and Vallam Vadagal, by locally sourcing 69% of its raw material in support of the local
market, to meet the increasing demand for Royal Enfield motorcycles and commercial vehicles on a
national and international scale.
Eicher has developed long-standing relationships with local vendors, ensuring a stable supply of high-
quality materials. The company's commitment to local sourcing also aligns with the Indian
government’s "Make in India" initiative, promoting indigenous manufacturing.

Distribution Strategy
The distribution strategy that Eicher Motors typically use for its motorcycles and commercial vehicles is
multi-channel. They sell fleet operators directly as well as through dealerships for commercial cars.

owned storefronts.
Approximately 80% of commercial vehicle sales in a recent fiscal year were credited to dealerships,
with the other 20% being sold directly to fleet operators. Royal Enfield motorbike sales have increased
significantly thanks to company-owned and franchised locations. Franchises account for between 60
and 70 % of Royal Enfield sales, offering a robust local presence and customer service. Online and
company-owned channels account for the remaining sales.

accessories and spare parts, giving them a diverse business source. But the two-wheeler industry,

source of revenue. The venerable Royal Enfield brand, a significant bulwark for Eicher Motors,
dominates this market.
Even while two-wheelers are the most common, other segments also play a role: Passenger Vehicles:
VECV's offers account for the majority of the company's 18% income from passenger vehicles. Light
commercial vehicles, such as vans or small trucks, may fall under this category. Commercial Vehicles:
Traditional heavy commercial vehicles, such as trucks and buses, account for 4.5% of revenue. Here's a

venture between AB Volvo and Eicher Motors Ltd. This deal affirmed Eicher's ambition to operating
globally in the search for creative and effective transportation solutions. The 2010 production of the VE
series of heavy-duty trucks was made possible by VECV, solidifying Eicher's standing as a market leader
in commercial vehicles. In addition, this joint venture established a cutting-edge production plant in
Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh, which now acts as the Volvo Group's global centre for medium-duty five-

ESG COMPLIANCE AND RISK MITIGATION

Purpose
This section evaluates Eicher Motors' adherence to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards.
As ESG factors increasingly influence investment decisions, understanding Eicher Motors' compliance and
practices in these areas is essential for assessing its long-term sustainability and risk profile.

Scope
The analysis covers Eicher Motors' environmental impact, social responsibility, and governance practices,
detailing regulatory compliance, initiatives, challenges, and performance metrics.

Environmental Compliance
Management Approach:
The management in recent years, has been adopting a proactive strategy focused on minimising its
environmental impact across the value chain. They have focused on applying resource ecient practices as
well as increasing the share of renewable energy in their operations. Going forward, they plan on
formalising these eorts by setting clear goals, targets, and governance mechanisms, with resource eciency
remaining a key component of its sustainability strategy.
Energy and Emissions:
While manufacturing in automobile industries is bound to rise corresponding to the increasing demand, it
also puts pressure on energy resources such as coal and other fossil fuels. EML’s strategic steps to
environmental sustainability are rooted in the belief to reverse the existing trend of over consumption and
restore balance in the ecosystem. We recognise the possibility to reduce energy intensity by active
involvement in eorts to reduce consumption in our operations and switch to renewable energy.
Energy Consumption:
While the energy consumption has been steady, the company on its part has been upping its capacity, both
onsite as well as offsite. The firm has been taking a string of energy conservation and eciency measures
totalling over 2700+ MwH in savings and over 1900 tCO2e emmisions. The firm has made the goal of
enhancing renewable power component in the energy matrix, a key objective. Considering the severity of
impacts of carbon emissions, we compute the emissions occurring as a result of our energy consumption

Scope 1 Emissions: Organisational Boundary (Direct Emissions)


Scope 2 Emissions: Purchased Electricity, cooling, steam and, heat (Indirect Emissions)
Scope 3 Emissions: Supply chain & transportation, distribution and end of life (Indirect Emissions)

Regulatory Framework: The firm follows the BS VI emissions norms laid out in 2020, which state stringent
emission standards to be adopted by the vehicle manufacturing industries in their products.

BS-VI Emissions: are the latest and by-far the most stringent set of GHG EMISSIONS (tCO2e)
measures implemented in India, aimed at reducing air pollutants from
90000
motor vehicles. Introduced in April 2020, BS VI norms represent a 79462
80000 72545 73904
significant leap from the previous BS IV standards. These norms seek to 70000
lower emissions by looking to drastically reduce the harmful pollutants 60000 54679
emitted by burning fuels. In this vein, they have sought to increase 50000
mandates on fuel quality as well as emphasise technological upgrades. 40000
Vehicles now require advanced technologies like Selective Catalytic 30000
Reduction (SCR) and Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) to comply with 20000

these standards, especially for diesel engines. Additionally, the firm has 10000

been focused on reducing waste, by recycling and reusing materials. 0

These recycled components make up over 18% of the total materials


used.

Future Scope: In addition to a continuing focus on energy conservation and eciency, we aim to achieve
carbon positive status in our operations by reducing energy consumption, using renewable energy sources
and using carbon osets to restore the balance of the ecosystem. Our long-term strategy involves target
setting and developing roadmaps to achieve those targets over the next few years.

Water Management Practices: Eicher Motors has demonstrated a strong commitment to sustainable water
management across its manufacturing facilities, with particular focus on minimizing freshwater
consumption, enhancing recycling eorts, and mitigating water-related risks in areas of water stress. They
have maintained a Zero Liquid Discharge(ZLD) status at all of its manufacturing facilities, ensuring no
wastewater is discharged into the environment. The firm makes use of a multi-stage treatment system to
recycle over 92% of its total water withdrawal. To further reduce dependency on freshwater, Eicher Motors
has implemented rainwater harvesting systems at several facilities. Additionally, they have undertaken
several initiatives aimed at improving water eciency in its operations. These include the installation of water-
ecient sanitary fittings and optimization of water usage in cooling and production processes.

Waste Management:
The firm is increasingly adopting the industry-standard best practices, in line with the regulatory standards
of the sector. The company optimizes resource usage by reducing waste from materials such as brass, paint
sludge, and oil. It ensures responsible disposal of hazardous waste, diverting materials like paint sludge to
cement kilns for co-processing and recycling used oil and solvents through authorized vendors. Non-
hazardous waste is processed through authorized dealers to maximize recycling and recovery. Overall, its
focus on reducing hazardous and non-hazardous waste, combined with eorts to optimize material usage
showcases a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and regulatory compliance.
