Mumbai: The decision to penalize fuel-wasters and switch to electricity to meet transportation needs is spurring innovation in a key aspect of the value chain: component manufacturers.

Anuragagaga Jain, Managing Director, Endurance Technologies, on this month’s financial report conference call, “We are getting into the aluminum forging business and have started manufacturing inverted fork triple clamps and active clamps.” Vehicles with electrical systems will also benefit from the program.

ICICI Shashank Kanodia “This is a very new trend as everyone wants to reduce the weight of the vehicle in the best possible way to control emissions.”

Bharat Forge It is one of India’s largest manufacturers of precision components focused on improving lightweight production. In its annual report, the Pune-based company said, “Stricter emission standards will accelerate the shift to lightweight technology.”” “We are looking at structural components for the automotive and industrial segments with a focus on aluminum.
