India is a developing country. The working class is having more money in hand. Households are moving towards spending more than ever before. Cars and bikes are the most sought goods to buy after a sudden increase in the income scale. For price-sensitive Indians, the second-hand vehicle market is gaining traction.
The most used part in vehicles after fuel is the tyres. Be it a new or old vehicle, the tyre is a must. We will talk about the tyre industry today. I think tyre industry shares are currently running in a discount. They are a good bet for emerging India and for our portfolio as well.
Best Tyre Stocks in India 2024

This news is now digested and the current stock price has adjusted penalties to be paid by the manufacturers.

Tyre production in India is rising at 5% to 7% YOY. For FY22, it is expected that the increase in production would be 10% to 15% as compared to 2019-2020. This will benefit all board members.
