This growth in domestic auto component sales to OEMs, reaching Rs. 4.76 lakh crores (USD 59.3 billion), reflects a 39.5% increase compared to the previous year. The demand for higher-value components and a shift towards larger, more powerful vehicles contributed to this growth.

Key export items included drive transmission and steering, engine components, body/chassis, suspension, and braking systems.


Domestic market traction also led to an increase in component imports into India, growing by 10.9% in 2022-23 to Rs. 1.63 lakh crore (USD 20.3 billion) from Rs. 1.36 lakh crore (USD 18.3 billion) in 2021-22.
