The India off-the-road tire market size reached 12.0 Million Units in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 20.9 Million Units by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.05% during 2025-2033.
Off-the-road (OTR) tires refer to the deeply treaded tires that provide high traction over uneven surfaces, including rock, mud, loose dirt, or gravel. These tires are widely installed in numerous vehicles, including cranes, wheel loaders, telescopic handlers, tractors, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), military trucks, specialized purpose vehicles, etc. OTR tires provide high heat and rolling resistance, better durability, enhanced vehicular performance, optimum stability, easy mobility, and reduced contact patch area. As a result, they are widely adopted across various sectors, including construction, mining, recreation, agriculture, etc.
In India, a significant growth in the construction industry has led to increasing infrastructural development activities across diverse geographic locations. Owing to this, there is a growing demand for heavy-duty construction vehicles which is further catalyzing the market for OTR tires. Additionally, the Indian government is heavily investing in the development of various commercial infrastructures across the country, such as highways, power supply grids, bridges, dams, etc., thereby augmenting the demand for OTR tires. In line with this, the elevating levels of urbanization are also driving the adoption of OTR-based cranes, lorries, trucks, etc., in the construction of modern housing complexes, corporate offices, educational facilities, retail centers, etc. Moreover, the expanding agriculture industry in the country has led to the increasing penetration of automated machinery and farm mechanization solutions. The growing adoption of OTR tire-based tractors and loaders in agricultural farms is positively influencing the market in India. Apart from this, a significant growth in the recreational sector has led to the rising deployment of OTR tires in dirt bikes, quads, ATVs, etc. Moreover, the increasing integration of advanced sensor-based technologies with OTR tires for monitoring tire pressure and temperature is further expected to drive the market growth in India over the forecast period.
The competitive landscape of the industry has also been examined with some of the key players being Apollo Tyres Limited, Balkrishna Industries Limited, Bridgestone Corporation, CEAT Limited, Continental AG, JK Tyre & Industries Limited, Michelin, MRF Limited, The Goodyear Tyre & Rubber Company and The Yokohama Rubber Co.
