It was a tyre called the Hercules which was the first of its kind. Later, products like Amar, Loadstar and XT-7, XT-9 and XT-9 Gold were introduced, products still enjoy consumer validation. In fact, XT-9 is the only tyre in India to have sold more than one crore units, providing the superiority of the product. In later years, there have been many such first in BIRLA's cap.

The Future
At BIRLA Tyres, they believe in being in control of their destiny. They set ambitious targets and believe in stretching themselves to outperform them. Therefore, the leadership position in the Indian market notwithstanding, BIRLA is now set to look overseas for new challenges. Nearly all initiatives being taken at this point in time are geared to fuel this ambition. At home and abroad, BIRLA is looking to not only consolidate its leadership position in various segments through newer, high technology products but also through consistent organic and inorganic growth opportunities, in tyres and allied products. Becoming a leader in the passenger car tyre segment is a priority as is the export of passenger car radials. If the company continues to grow at the current pace, BIRLA expected to reach the US$1 billion mark in less than five years. Continuous focus on cost control and operating efficiency remains the hallmark of the company. Adding to all this is the fact that radialisation in India is throwing up fresh opportunities, as is the boom in road infrastructure and the completion of the Golden Quadrilateral and the North-SouthEast-West corridor. Therefore the future is optimistic with promises of a virtuous cycle of growth. BIRLA has three tyre manufacturing facilities and one unit for the production of tubes and flaps in four locations based in West and South India. BIRLA endeavour has been to have the widest spread of sales and regional offices, along with stock points at locations which allow for maximum customer reach and efficient supply chain management. BIRLA dealer or business partners are also chosen with great care. BIRLAs products are sold through a combination of outlets ranging from exclusive dealerships to multi-brand and branded retail outlets. The continuous upgradation of dealer knowledge is in BIRLAs interest and therefore their training is undertaken by the company. With a dedicated field sales, technical and commercial force of 600, we feel that we are best positioned to meet the customer specific needs.

Suggestions:The suggestions from the consumers to the tyre company are following.
Some consumer are unsatisfied with the price because competitors product price are less than BIRLA, So company should pay attention in their mind on price. Company should provide more mileage of tyres because overloading has been imposed by the government. Company should provide credit facility because customer demands this type
of facility.
The problem of BIRLA consumers are lack of adequate promotional schemes. Dealers don't provide adequate information in the support of the BIRLA brands. They see their margin of profit alone. Some schemes should be provided by company. It is good technique for sales promotions.
Company should give special attention after sales service of their customers.
