Pakistan’s listed automobile companies reported a significant rise in combined earnings during the quarter ended June 2026, reflecting stronger performance across several parts of the automotive industry.
According to a report by Arif Habib Limited, the companies recorded combined profits of Rs. 28.4 billion, representing a 39.2% increase compared with the same period last year. Sector revenue also grew by 33.7%, reaching Rs. 310.9 billion.
The increase in earnings was supported by higher vehicle sales, the introduction of new models and the expansion of auto financing. These factors contributed to improved business activity despite challenges facing the automobile market.
Sazgar Engineering Works recorded the highest profit growth among the companies mentioned, with its quarterly earnings rising by 150.6%. Atlas Honda, Honda Atlas Cars and Millat Tractors also reported year-on-year increases in profits.
However, not all companies experienced similar results. Indus Motor and Ghandhara Automobiles recorded declines in their earnings during the quarter.
The sector’s performance comes as vehicle demand shows signs of improvement in Pakistan. At the same time, automobile manufacturers continue to face pressure related to rising fuel prices, local production requirements and the growing shift towards electric mobility.
The latest figures highlight the changing conditions in Pakistan’s automotive industry, where manufacturers are balancing sales growth with evolving consumer preferences and production challenges. Further developments in vehicle financing, localisation and electric vehicle adoption are expected to influence the sector’s future performance.
