Balkrishna Industries Ltd. (BKT) has once again been honored with the "Highest Export Award" by the All India Rubber Industries Association (AIRIA), marking the 16th consecutive year the company has received this prestigious accolade since 2009.
The award recognizes BKT's exceptional export performance in the tyre sector during 2024-2025, further cementing the multinational's position as a dominant force in off-highway tyre manufacturing and a trusted partner in the international tyre industry.
AIRIA, a not-for-profit organization serving the rubber industry and trade in India, plays a pivotal role in representing and promoting the country's rubber sector whilst fostering its growth and global competitiveness.
The latest recognition celebrates BKT's outstanding export performance across tyres, flaps, and carbon black, underscoring the company's consistent leadership and remarkable success in expanding its global footprint.
"This recognition is a testament to BKT's unwavering commitment to excellence in manufacturing, uncompromising quality standards and strategic global expansion," said Arvind Poddar, Chairman & Managing Director of BKT. "For another consecutive year, we are honored to be acknowledged as a trusted partner in the international tyre industry and remain dedicated to driving innovation and growing together whilst delivering value across global markets."

We also covered BKT’s 2030 roadmap and European structuring moves, which underscore its international sales focus, a backdrop that helps explain sustained export results.
