Notwithstanding concerns about a recession in the US and Europe's major markets, India's auto component sector is predicted to increase by between 10 and 15% in FY24, supported by both domestic and export market demand, the Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India stated on Monday. The auto components sector is anticipated to complete FY23 with a gain of 15% after clocking a USD 56.5 billion in revenue in FY22, an increase of 23% over the prior year.
