Motors, as part of our J.P. Morgan India Auto CXO series. The key takeaways Transportation

were: 1) Near-term demand trends are steady but there are some pockets of softness Amyn Pirani AC

• Macro demand anchored to GDP; near-term steady with pockets of

softness: Management reiterated GDP growth as the key long-term demand

driver, with freight ton-km growth typically tracking ~1-1.5% below GDP

growth. Near-term commentary was constructive with single-digit 1QFY26

growth already “in the pocket”, but management flagged an uncertain

environment with weakness in select pockets. Buses/vans were cited as

relatively robust given seasonality and government purchase pipeline.
