India Tyre Market is Segmented By Vehicle Type, By Demand Category, By Tyre Construction Type, and By Region.

The Tyre market in India is shaped by two major demand segments: original equipment (OEM) and replacement. The OEM category is driven by vehicle production across passenger cars, two-wheelers, commercial vehicles, and agricultural equipment. As new vehicle models are launched with improved safety, efficiency, and handling expectations, OEMs require advanced tire technologies tailored for performance and compliance. Automakers often collaborate with tire suppliers for co-developed solutions that suit vehicle specifications and operating conditions. The OEM segment responds closely to automotive manufacturing trends and tends to mirror fluctuations in vehicle sales volumes.

The replacement segment, on the other hand, is influenced by factors like road conditions, tyre wear cycles, consumer usage behavior, and vehicle maintenance practices. Replacement tire demand spans across both urban and rural regions, with customers prioritizing longevity, cost-efficiency, grip, and brand trust. Seasonal impacts such as monsoon or harvest seasons can drive localized demand spikes, particularly for tractor and commercial vehicle tires. With many older vehicles still in use across India, the replacement segment often supports a diverse mix of radial and bias tyre types.

In 2025, the southern region of India recorded rapid expansion in tyre demand, attributed to rising vehicle registration rates, infrastructure development, and growing mobility needs across urban and semi-urban locations. States such as Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana witnessed increasing investments in roads, ports, and industrial zones, which contributed to higher movement of passenger and commercial vehicles. Expanding trade and e-commerce logistics pushed fleet operators to scale operations, thereby raising the need for reliable, long-lasting tires with enhanced performance features.

Tire consumption grew across two-wheelers, passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, and buses due to the convergence of industrial activity and improving road networks. New vehicle sales encouraged OEM tire demand, while growing awareness around tire safety, fuel savings, and durability supported the replacement cycle. In rural belts, agricultural machinery adoption continued to rise, driving demand for application-specific tires that withstand tough field conditions and variable terrain. The presence of a diverse customer base, from ride-hailing users to long-haul truck operators, resulted in a wide mix of tyre types and specifications circulating in the market.

Digital tyre sales and doorstep service models found traction in urban centers across the southern region, helping customers access branded products and timely installations. This shift in retail behavior, supported by strong internet penetration and mobile servicing platforms, encouraged structured and informed purchasing decisions. Tire dealers in this region adapted to demand shifts by offering a blend of premium, mid-range, and economy tyres catering to local requirements. Road safety awareness campaigns, tire care programs, and increasing preference for smart tires and radialization in commercial fleets reflected the technological progress in this region.
