The company is planning to achieve a production of 10,000 passenger car radial tyres and 1,000 units of truck and bus radial tyres by the end of 2015.

Though, the market slowdown in the automotive industry has had a cascading effect on the sales in OEM segment, nevertheless, we are doing pretty well in the replacement market".
