Kotak Securities note said FIEM has a strong market position with a potential to capitalize on the reviving two-wheeler demand, which has seen an uptrend after the pandemic. The brokerage anticipates healthy volume growth in the two-wheeler industry from FY25-27, driven by rising demand and higher government spending.
