Tenneco automotive components manufacturing plant in India.
Tenneco, a global automotive component manufacturer, is positioning India as its primary growth engine, projecting double-digit expansion through 2028. This strategic focus is underpinned by the company’s success in localizing its operations and a notable increase in exports from the region.
The Indian market presents a substantial opportunity, estimated at ₹1,300 crore (approximately $156 million USD), largely fueled by upcoming regulatory changes. Stricter emission standards, such as CAFE-3 (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) and the anticipated BS7 norms, are expected to drive demand for advanced automotive components, aligning with Tenneco’s product portfolio.
By leveraging its established manufacturing capabilities and supply chain in India, Tenneco aims to capitalize on the evolving automotive landscape. The company’s commitment to localization not only enhances its competitive edge within the Indian market but also supports its global export strategy, making India a critical hub for its future growth initiatives.
