Country's largest car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki 's net profit rose 2.4 times year-on-year - higher-than-expected - to Rs 501 crore in the third quarter of financial year 2012-13, sending shares to 3-year high of Rs 1,601.

Operating profit margin improved 270 basis points YoY to 7.9 percent and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation & amortisation (EBITDA) were more than doubled to Rs 890 crore from Rs 417 crore during the same period.

Other income increased to Rs 189 crore in December quarter from Rs 175 crore in the corresponding quarter of previous fiscal while finance costs rose 2.55 times YoY to Rs 46 crore in the third quarter.
