India's commercial vehicle market just had its best year in seven. Then the June quarter arrived, and margins fell
There is, at this point, an apparent contradiction at work in the Indian commercial vehicles space. One: FY 2026 was the best of the last seven years. A tax cut saw prices of trucks drop by about 10%, releasing pent-up replacement demand in a fleet with an average age of about 10 years. Two: Although the sector's second-largest truck maker sold a record number of vehicles in the June quarter, adding 10% to revenue, the benefits did not flow in. Rising material costs swallowed the operating leverage.

Commodity Talk| “The conversation is shifting from ‘Can I trade commodities?’ to ‘What role should commodities play?’: Sunil Katke
Gold has already established itself as a strategic asset for Indian investors, but the opportunity is increasingly extending to silver, copper and other critical commodities. At the same time, the traditional equity-debt portfolio may not always offer adequate diversification during inflationary or geopolitical shocks, making commodities an increasingly relevant portfolio sleeve rather than simply a trading opportunity.
Commodity Talk | Gold isn't the only story: Why copper, energy and other commodities are gaining portfolio relevance, says Dr. Joseph Thomas
Gold remains the traditional hedge against inflation and uncertainty, but the opportunity set is becoming much broader. Copper, for instance, is gaining structural relevance as demand from electric vehicles, construction, AI and data centres collides with limited investment in new mines and declining ore quality. Energy markets, meanwhile, remain critical for India, where higher crude prices can quickly feed into import costs, inflation and the balance of payments.
