Pleased to share exclusive interaction of Our Managing Director, Mr. Rajeev Kapur ji with Business Standard (an Indian English-language daily edition newspaper, also available in Hindi) On the rising impact of crude oil prices and the West Asia conflict on India’s helmet manufacturing industry. As highlighted in the report, helmet manufacturing costs have increased by nearly 20% due to the sharp rise in petroleum-based raw materials such as Polycarbonate, ABS, and EPS. Despite this major cost pressure, the organised industry has increased helmet prices only marginally while continuing to focus on: ✅ Rider Safety ✅ BIS Certified Quality Helmets ✅ Fighting Fake Helmets ✅ Road Safety Awareness ✅ Innovation & Premium Safety Products India urgently needs stricter enforcement against fake helmets and stronger implementation of helmet safety regulations across the country. A helmet is not an accessory, it is a life-saving necessity.
