MSI said the launch of models like Grand Vitara and a new version of Brezza helped it bolster market share in the high selling SUV segment and bring additional volumes.

Besides, factors like cost reduction efforts, improved realisation, favourable foreign exchange variation, softening of commodity prices and higher non-operating income also helped in the margin improvement during the third quarter as compared to the same period of last fiscal.

MSI said shortage of electronic components impacted production by about 46,000 vehicles in the third quarter.

Besides, the pending customer orders stood at about 3,63,000 units at the end of the third quarter out of which about 1,19,000 orders were for newly launched models, it added.
