TVS Eurogrip TORQ Challenge 2021

Case Study
Background
After a difficult phase of COVID-19 lockdowns and various uncertainties for the past many months, the
last few months saw India Inc gearing up to better times. Analysts expect the automobile and ancillary
industries among the many others to gain growth momentum owing to an improved outlook for the
auto sector, strong rural demand, and increasing personal mobility trends.

The automobile sector is showing signs of recovery, this is giving a boost to the tyre industry. Rural
demand for tyres has been growing and since COVID-19 it has gone up even more. The expectation is
that global markets, led by India, will be the main growth drivers for two-wheeler tyre segment, in the
foreseeable future. Post COVID, the replacement market has seen growth stemming from pent-up
demand and Tier-II & Tier-III cities. Apprehensions on using shared / public transport and a shift to
personal mobility due to COVID-19 are expected to push the two-wheeler tyre demand in the coming
quarters.

Tyre purchase is still a low involvement behavior and does have a large influence from mechanics and
retailers. There is top of mind recall only for a few tyre brands among consumers.

However, today the purchase behavior is slowly changing, especially with two-wheeler riders, when it
comes to choosing tyres. Young riders today are far more informed and are sure about what they want
for their vehicles.

TVS Srichakra Limited is one of India’s leading manufacturers and exporters of 2&3 Wheeler tyres and
Off-Highway tyres. Incorporated in 1982, it is one of the flagship companies of the USD 8.5 Billion TVS

European, and Japanese road conditions. TVS Srichakra’s products are available in over 85 countries

In early 2018 we embarked on a new journey to refresh Brand TVS Tyres with a new name, identity, and
positioning where ‘TVS Eurogrip’ as a brand was launched in August 2019. The business is split into
Original Equipment- OE (Tyres that get fitted into new vehicles) and After Market – AM (tyres bought at
the retail counter at the time of replacement).

THROTTLE UP TO
TAKE ON
THE WORLD!
While TVS Eurogrip has a leadership position in the OE market, the challenge lies in how we capitalise
on this leadership and influence the conversion when they are due for a replacement. The ask is on how
we can build brand salience and influence purchase to the maximum extent possible. Since there are
intermediaries in both business verticals (OE & AM) it is challenging to collect customer information and
engage one to one.
