Management Commentary
Mr. Vijay Shrinivas, CEO & Whole Time Director, commented on the results:
The strong performance was driven by disciplined execution of product mix, channel mix, and pricing management. The company continues to serve performance-seeking customers through its Indag-branded product portfolio. Input costs (natural rubber and PBR) touched multi-year highs through Q1 FY27 due to the 2026 West Asia escalation, which is being managed through raw-material monitoring, calibrated price pass-through, and supplier/geography diversification.
The retreading industry's value proposition was highlighted:
- Economically: A retreaded tyre saves up to ~70% of new tyre cost
- Environmentally: A retreaded tyre saves 57 liters of oil, 44kg of rubber, and ~136 kg of lower CO₂ emissions versus a new tyre
