Maruti Suzuki India reported a rise in second-quarter net profit on higher revenue.

The Indian unit of Japanese carmaker Suzuki Motor said Friday that net profit climbed 7.9% from a year earlier to 33.49 billion rupees, equivalent to $377.9 million, for the three months ended September.

Revenue increased 13% to 423.44 billion rupees.

The stock has gained about 50% this year, driven by hopes for strong electric-vehicle sales and increasing exports. Maruti Suzuki began shipping its first battery EV, E Vitara, to Europe in August.
