FUTURE OUTLOOK
The Indian automotive industry has achieved the position of the top
growing passenger car market in the world during the January-June
period in 2011. According to The Society of Indian Automobile
Manufacturers (SIAM), in passenger vehicles, India was the fastest
growing market at 18.20 per cent during the six month and India''s
automobile industry is expected to grow by 11 to 13 per cent in the
fiscal year ending March 2012. The four-wheel passenger vehicle market
has grown impressively at the hands of the new middle class, and there
is huge opportunity, as market penetration remains low.
AUNDE India is participating in the design development process of
textiles and covers for sportswear, airplane, buses, coaches etc with
AUNDE Global Group. Further, the Company is trying to tie up with AUNDE
Global Group members for market knowledge and fabric development
programmes, which will facilitate the Company to expand its market
share in auto textile segment in India as well as globally.
Further, the Company has successfully bagged export orders for supply
of fabric to General Motors under Global Programme. The shipments will
commence from 2012.
The Company is looking forward to grab opportunities by offering
products with varied designs and consumer preferences. With its
technologically advanced equipments AUNDE is confident to reap the
benefits in coming years.
