Autocar Professional's newest edition takes a close look at India’s automotive industry as it assesses the year so far and prepares for the festive season and the months ahead. The latest edition draws on the discussions and developments emerging from the annual convention week in New Delhi, where SIAM, ACMA, FADA, ASDC and ICEMA brought together vehicle manufacturers, component suppliers, dealers, skilling organisations and policymakers.
This edition examines the government’s growing expectations from the automotive sector, with senior ministers and Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighting the industry’s role in manufacturing, employment and exports. The government has called for greater focus on innovation, quality, technology and cost competitiveness, while urging the industry to strengthen localisation and build products and capabilities for global markets.
Component Industry Challenges, Hero MotoCorp and TVS Motor Leadership
The latest edition also looks at the challenges facing the component industry as supply chains evolve and manufacturers seek greater flexibility to respond to changing demand. Alongside these broader industry trends, the issue features an interview with Hero MotoCorp CEO Harshavardhan Chitale on the company’s premium strategy and future products, while examining the leadership transition at TVS Motor and its implications for the company’s next phase.
Ather Energy's Mass-Market Push and the Festive Season Outlook
The issue also explores Ather Energy’s mass-market ambitions and the challenge of scaling while retaining its technology-led positioning. With the festive season set to provide an important indication of demand, this edition considers whether India’s automotive industry can translate its scale into sustained global competitiveness.
