I don’t check the markets every morning, but today something caught my attention. Force Motors, the company behind the rugged Travellers and reliable Trax SUVs, made big news. Its share price jumped 20% in a day to hit an all time high of ₹20,563. That’s not just a market move. That’s investor enthusiasm you can feel.

So I had to find out what caused the big surge. The answer was clear in the company’s Q1 FY26 results. Force Motors posted a 52% rise in net profit to ₹176 crore from ₹115 crore last year. Revenue grew 22% to ₹2,297 crore. It’s not just about numbers. The company improved its operating margins too with EBITDA up 33% and margins at 14.4%. That’s impressive in today’s market.

What struck me was how solid everything was. Domestic sales volumes grew 26% driven by steady demand for vehicles like Urbania, Traveller and Trax. These aren’t just showroom stars. They are out there on the roads every day earning their keep.

On top of that the company still has zero debt, which is a rare luxury in a capital intensive industry. And with Anshul Saxena as Vice President of Corporate Strategy it looks like Force Motors is thinking beyond the next quarter.
