Mody Group

What Mody Group does

Mody Group, legally Mody Autoindia Pvt. Ltd., is an Indian multi-brand automobile dealership group headquartered in Hyderabad, Telangana, operating since 1985. The group sells and services passenger vehicles across more than 50 facilities spanning four states: Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Goa, with a workforce of approximately 2,000 professionals.

Its brand portfolio includes authorized dealerships for Toyota, BYD, Honda, Volkswagen, Škoda, Ford, and Jeep, providing exposure across mass-market, European, SUV, and electric vehicle segments. Revenue is generated through four primary streams: new vehicle sales, after-sales service, insurance and financing intermediation, and parts and accessories. The group has been adding OEM partnerships sequentially since 2020 and has expanded its EV offering through its BYD relationship since 2021.

The business model is that of a traditional authorized automotive retailer: revenue is largely transactional and tied to OEM vehicle allocations, while profitability is anchored by after-sales service, parts, and finance/insurance attach. The group has deployed digital channels for online test-drive booking and service scheduling, and recent facility additions have incorporated green-board certifications, but the underlying operating model remains physical-dealership-led with consumer (B2C) customers as the primary end market.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Hyundai Motor India: Second-largest Indian passenger-vehicle OEM and a franchisor that competing dealer groups carry but Mody does not. Relevant peer for benchmarking showroom economics, service throughput, and EV pipeline (Hyundai Creta EV, Ioniq 5).
• Maruti Suzuki India Limited: India's dominant passenger-car OEM with the largest authorized dealer network nationwide. Not a peer in the retail sense, but the dominant franchise principal whose terms, margins, and brand strength define dealer-group economics.
• Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles: Indian OEM whose EV push (Tiago EV, Punch EV, Nexon EV) directly competes with BYD in Mody's portfolio. Not a retailer, but the principal influencing showroom allocation, financing terms, and after-sales economics in Mody's footprint.

Direct peers

• Popular Vehicles & Services Limited: Listed Indian multi-brand auto dealership group operating across passenger car, commercial vehicle, and two-wheeler franchises. Most directly comparable peer — same multi-OEM franchise business model, multiple southern Indian state presence, similar mix of vehicle sales, service, and parts revenue.
• Maheshwari Motors: Indian multi-brand car dealer with showrooms and service centers in multiple states. Directly comparable mid-sized dealership group model with similar brand-portfolio diversification approach.
• Bimal Auto Agency: Kerala-based multi-brand auto dealership operating both passenger-car and commercial-vehicle franchises. Comparable family-owned Indian multi-brand dealer model with strong focus on sales, service, and parts.
• Aditya Auto Group: Multi-brand automotive dealer group in southern and western India with passenger-car and commercial-vehicle franchises. Operates the same multi-OEM authorized-retailer model with parallel state-level coverage.
• Sundaram Motors: Long-standing multi-brand automobile dealership in Tamil Nadu/Andhra Pradesh with similar OEM franchise mix and service-center network. Comparable in size, southern-India footprint, and after-sales orientation.

Others

• Cholamandalam Investment & Finance: Large Indian NBFC with deep auto-loan origination capability that typically partners with dealer groups like Mody to provide captive financing at the showroom counter. Comparable as an enabler of Mody's vehicle-finance revenue stream.

Emerging players

• CarTrade Tech (CarWale / CarDekho group): Indian digital auto marketplace that captures lead-flow upstream of dealer showrooms. Not a direct competitor but increasingly competes for customer attention and online lead conversion that traditional dealers depend on for showroom traffic.
