The Company's automobile products include light, medium and heavy commercial vehicles, jeep type vehicles and passenger cars.

Although it appears to be an auto company, M&M is more of a conglomerate with stakes in various industries. Please see chart below. Almost half of the value of M&M comes from stakes in its subsidiaries such as Tech Mahindra, M&M Financial, Mah Life Spaces, Mahindra Holidays etc.
The core business trades at 8-9x earnings and has the potential to surprise on the upside in the coming quarters. The company is run by one of the best management teams in India and this stock is a must for your long term portfolio. In the short term expect a 14-15% move.

Core Business
M&M’s core business is focused on utility vehicles and farm
equipment. The M&M utility vehicle portfolio has lost a lot of market share
in the last few years from 55% to currently 37%. They have lost market share
due to lack of recent launches and competition from Ford Ecosport and Duster.
Last quarter, the tractor volumes show the sharpest declines due to slowdown in
rural consumption.
Future Prospects
Despite the slowdown in overall auto industry, M&M has maintained revenue growth of 16%. M&M has clearly highlighted that FY16E would be an aggressive launch year, which has already begun with the launch of new XUV500. The company is expected to launch a new platform, a major refresh and a new variant launch in the first three quarters of FY16. The new platform will include two compact SUVs, with one focused on the rural market and other towards urban consumers. The compact SUV segment is expected to grow faster as customers take to it as an alternative to premium hatchbacks. Secondly, peers like GM and Renault have a weaker distribution network compared to M&M. We expect M&M to regain market share as volumes improve.
As far as tractor volumes
go, we expect some traction in the rural economy given the monsoon has panned
out well and rural wage inflation has bottomed out. Future Prospects
