Moreover, as the government is increasingly focusing on infrastructural developments, i.e., leading to several construction & development projects across the country, the need for medium & heavy commercial vehicles is rising rapidly, positively influencing the demand for tires. Additionally, the government is also laying out favorable policies for foreign manufacturers to establish their production units in India.

Furthermore, with rising concerns over the alarming levels of carbon emissions, the Indian government is encouraging the public to adopt Electric Vehicles (EVs). It, in turn, is generating opportunities for the top tire companies to develop EV-compatible tires and provide replacements for fuel-based cars to increase fuel efficiency & significantly reduce these emissions. Overall, this is augmenting the size & volume of the tire industry in India. Nonetheless, the growing government inclination toward expanding the public transportation fleet further projects an accelerating demand for tires for commercial vehicles and notable overall growth of the tire market in India in the coming years.

India Tire Market Driver:

Robust Economic Growth & Increasing Vehicle Production –  The main factors driving the tire market in India are, in fact, the country's strong economic development and increasing vehicle production. India's middle class has been growing, and disposable incomes have increased due to the country's significant economic growth. This increasing economic growth has augmented consumers' expenditures on automobiles. To meet the rising need for both personal and commercial transportation, there has been a notable growth in vehicle production. Because every new vehicle needs tires, the market for tires in India is directly boosted by this increase in vehicle production.

The government's emphasis on improving rural connectivity and infrastructure also increases demand for commercial vehicles, which augments the size & volume of the tire industry in the country. The emergence of electric vehicles and improvements in tire technology are also driving the growth & expansion of the tire industry in India. India's position in the global tire industry is further strengthened by the growing emphasis on manufacturing capabilities and exports. The tire industry's continuous growth and development are supported by these elements working together to produce a vibrant environment.


India Tire Market

India Tire Market Challenge:

Fluctuations in the Prices of Raw Materials Impeding Market Growth – The Indian tire industry has significant challenges due to fluctuations in the pricing of raw materials, specifically natural rubber and derivatives derived from crude oil. These materials account for a large percentage of production costs; thus, any form of price fluctuation has a significant impact on the demand for Indian tire brands globally. Tire manufacturers may face challenges in the form of higher production costs as raw material prices rise, which may hinder their growth & global expansion if they can't transfer these increased costs to customers in the form of higher pricing.

Furthermore, to reduce risks, price volatility demands careful supply chain management and strategic procurement, which can raise operational complexity and expenses. These variations affect tire companies' financial standing as well as their ability to implement pricing plans with certainty, which reduces their competitiveness in both home and foreign markets. Manufacturers must take agile and adaptable measures to manage these swings, such as investing in alternative materials or technologies and diversifying their sourcing alternatives.

India Tire Market Trend:

Increasing Demand for Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Tires – There is an increasing demand for eco-friendly and sustainable tires in the Indian tire industry because consumers are becoming more aware of climate change and its adverse impact on their lives. Moreover, sustainable tire solutions are becoming more and more popular due to the stricter regulations regarding emissions and waste management in the country. Tires with lower rolling resistance are more in demand from customers because they improve fuel economy, emit fewer greenhouse gases, and are composed of eco-friendly materials. To respond to this new market trend, the top tire companies in India by market share are making substantial investments in green technology and creating tires that use sustainable raw materials, including eco-friendly lubricants and natural rubber sourced from sustainable plantations.

The introduction of smart tires that monitor and optimize performance, along with other innovations like tire recycling programs, also helps the market achieve its sustainability objectives. This trend promotes growth and innovation in the tire business by not only complying with international environmental regulations but also meeting customer preferences for goods that reduce their environmental impact.

India Tire Market (2025-30): Segmentation Analysis

The India Tire Market study of MarkNtel Advisors evaluates & highlights the major trends and influencing factors in each segment. It also includes predictions for the period 2025–2030 at the national level. Based on analysis, the market has been further classified as:

Based on the Vehicle Type:

  • Two Wheelers
  • Three Wheelers
  • Passenger Cars
  • Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs)
  • Medium & Heavy Commercial Vehicles
  • Off the Road (OTR) Vehicles

Amongst all, two-wheelers are anticipated to dominate the India Tire Market with the largest market share during 2025-30. Improving road infrastructure & increasing traffic across the country are the prime factors driving the sales of two-wheelers for hassle-free commutes. Besides, the growing middle- & lower-middle-class population, coupled with mounting awareness among people about the benefits of timely repairs & replacement of tires, is also stimulating the sales of tires for two-wheelers across India. Moreover, the high versatility & affordability of two-wheeler vehicles is another prominent factor behind their growing popularity among people and, in turn, projects notable growth for the tire market in India through 2030.

On the other hand, passenger cars are anticipated to contribute significantly to overall market growth & expansion through 2030. It owes principally to the improving economic status of people, coupled with the presence of top tire companies in the country that are introducing new vehicles with advanced features, which, in turn, is greatly benefiting the sales of tires and augmenting the overall market growth.

Moreover, the increasing penetration of cab and taxi services across India is another factor driving the sales of passenger cars for commercial purposes. Since such use of vehicles involves longer driving hours, their tires tend to wear off quickly. As a result, it is driving the sales of tires in the aftermarket category owing to frequent tire replacements and, in turn, fueling the market share of tire companies in the country.

Based on the Type of Tire:

  • Radial
  • Bias

Here, radial tires are anticipated to dominate the market with the largest market share during the forecast period, principally due to the growing vehicle fleet for passenger cars & light commercial vehicles (LCVs) across India. Besides, the increasing awareness among vehicle owners about the benefits of radial tires, like lower rolling resistance, greater fuel efficiency, and superior stability on different road conditions, among others, is also stimulating the demand for these tires & augmenting the size & volume of the tire industry in India.

India Tire Industry Recent Development:

  • April 2023: A well-known tire manufacturer, CEAT Limited, partnered with a CEAT dealer, Bharat Tyres Gujarat Pvt Ltd., to create a cutting-edge truck service hub in Gandhidham.
  • April 2023: At its Bangalore facility, Continental started manufacturing Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) for passenger cars.
