“Our performance across geographies, has been robust in the past quarter, and we continue to be extremely positive on the demand environment. Given our planned investments in capacity, R&D, brand and distribution, along with our cost optimisation programme, we are well placed to leverage demand recovery across segments and geographies,” Onkar Kanwar, Chairman, Apollo Tyres, said.
“Also, the government turning to expansionary mode in the Budget, with a clear focus on growth, and the announcement on scrappage policy, will be a boost for us going forward,” he added.
