It constitutes approximately 76% of the total market comprising two-wheelers (2Ws), three-wheelers (3Ws), passenger vehicles (PVs) and commercial vehicles by volume; and approximately 16% in value terms (approximately Rs.1,056 billion). Furthermore, India is also one of the largest exporters of 2Ws in the world. (Source: CRISIL Report) CRISIL MI&A expects 2W exports from India to record a CAGR of 5%-7% between Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2028, compared to 5.3% between Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2023.

In the non-automotive sector, infrastructural growth, especially in emerging economies such as China and India, is a major driver of the power tools market globally.
