Tyre industry revenue to rise 7-8% in FY26 on replacement demand: Crisil

The domestic tyre industry is expected to witness revenue growth of 7-8 per cent this fiscal year, driven by replacement demand that accounts for half of annual sales, according to a report by Crisil Ratings. The segment is expected to post growth even as offtake by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) is likely to be subdued, the report stated. It also noted that the rising premiumisation is expected to give a slight leg-up to realisations. However, escalating trade tensions and the risk of dumping by Chinese producers diverting inventories because of US tariffs could pose challenges, the report stated. Operating profitability is likely to remain steady at 13-13.5 per cent, supported by stable input costs and healthy capacity utilisation, it said. This, along with strong accruals, lean balance sheets and calibrated capital spending should help sustain the sector's stable credit outlook, the report stated.

Apollo Tyres on Wednesday said its consolidated net profit declined by 24 per cent to Rs 302 crore for the first quarter ended June 30, 2024 on account of lower sales and escalation in raw material cost.

Tyre sale volumes expected to see moderate growth of 4-6% in FY25: ICRA

Domestic tyre sale volumes are expected to see a moderate growth of 4-6 per cent this fiscal after witnessing an estimated pace of 6-8 per cent in the previous financial year, ratings agency Icra said on Thursday. This growth in the last fiscal was driven by factors such as elevated base and subdued growth in the commercial vehicle (CV) segment, it said. However, Icra anticipates domestic demand from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in certain consumer segments like PV (passenger vehicle) and two-wheeler as well as for replacement to remain healthy, supporting overall tyre volume expansion in FY25. While revenues are likely to expand by 5-7 per cent this fiscal, high natural rubber prices and increasing crude prices are likely to moderate the tyre industry's margins by 200-300 basis points (bps) in FY25, Icra said. The rating agency also said it expects the replacement market, which contributes to over two-thirds of the industry volumes, to remain stable, aided by healthy ..
