Mumbai/UNI: Car major Maruti Suzuki India Ltd on Wednesday reported a 28 per cent decline in it's net profit for quarter ending March, 2020 at Rs 1,291.70 crore, compared to Rs 1795.60 crore in the last year.
Total revenue of the company under review declined by 15.19 per cent to Rs 18,198.70 crore, compared with Rs 21,459.40 crore for the quarter ended March, 2019.
Lower sales volume and higher sales promotion expenses dragged net profit in March quarter, according to Maruti Suzuki. However, this was partially offset by lower operating expenses, cost reduction efforts and reduction in corporate tax rate.

The board recommended a dividend of Rs 60 per share for the financial year ended March, 2020.
