<h1>India's Commerce Ministry Issues New Guidelines to Boost Domestic Tyre Manufacturing Amid Rising Demand.</h1> The Ministry of Commerce and Industry in India has introduced new guidelines for tyre manufacturers amid rising demand for tyres due to increased vehicle ownership and industrialization. The guidelines encourage investment in domestic manufacturing, either through expanding existing facilities or establishing new ones. Currently, import authorizations for new pneumatic tyres are restricted, requiring importers to obtain licenses as per a 2020 notification. These measures aim to boost the Indian tyre industry's growth by focusing on domestic production and innovation in advanced, eco-friendly tyres. Detailed guidelines are available from the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade.
