Indian auto component manufacturers are poised for international expansion, with immense opportunities in the independent aftermarket segment across Brazil, Colombia, Poland, and Africa. A recent EY-Parthenon report emphasizes that mature markets like Brazil—expected to reach USD 12 billion by 2028—and Colombia (USD 2 billion) are ripe for stronger engagement. Meanwhile, regions such as North Africa (USD 3.4 billion), South Africa (USD 3.7 billion), and East and West Africa offer emerging demand for cost-effective alternatives to branded parts.
Poland also presents a compelling proposition, targeting a USD 4.8 billion aftermarket. Indian exporters’ competitiveness lies in pricing, flexible supply, and the ability to serve independent aftermarket chains efficiently. Further, the UAE—poised as a trade hub with an USD 888 million aftermarket—provides a strategic entry point for broader GCC and African markets.
With global supply chains tightening, India’s cost advantages and quick lead-time capabilities make it a strong contender for these regions. Establishing partnerships with distributors and wholesalers will be key to tapping this sprawling aftermarket opportunity. For Indian manufacturers, this is not just about exporting—it’s about driving a global presence in high-growth markets with strategic depth and agility.
