• Although the tyre industry faces huge competition, price & cost pressures and high
entry barriers, the changing dynamics, with the growing economy and the escalating
auto industry, provide a fillip to the industry.
• The zooming auto industry, with sales growing at a CAGR of 15.8% during the
2002-06 period, has driven the growth in the tyre industry, keeping both the OEM
and replacement demand buoyant.
• The demand and growth for the industry depends on primary factors like overall
GDP growth, agricultural & industrial production and growth in vehicle-demand and
on secondary factors like infrastructure development and prevailing interest rates.
• The total number of vehicles on the road is constantly swelling, on the back of an
increase in road-transportation, which would gain more momentum once projects
like the Golden Quadrilateral and NSEW Corridor project get implemented.

sectors, can be divided into two tiers:
• Tier-I players (top 5 tyre companies) account for over 80% of industry turnover containing a well
diversified product-mix and presence in all three major segments, i.e. replacement market, original
equipment manufacturers (OEM's) and exports.
• Tier-II companies are small in size, concentrating chiefly on production of small tyres (for two/
three-wheelers, etc.), tubes and flaps and the replacement market. The industry has a negligible
market share in the commercial vehicles tyre category and is around 20% in the two-wheeler tyre
category.
• Crossply tyres account for 90-95% of tyres sold in India. The body of the tyre called the carcass
is made up of layers of rubber coated nylon or rayon fabric called piles. The main difference
between these two tyres is the direction in which ply cords are arranged and the type of
• In a crossply tyre, the fabric cords of the tyre criss cross each other and the major reinforcing
materials used are rayon and nylon tyre cords. Radial tyres have more flexible sidewalls and the
• There is a substantial price difference between crossply and radial tyres. Radial tyres are 10-15%
costlier compared to the crossply ones. Radial tyres can be differentiated on the type of belt
