In its notice to the bourse, the company said the expansion reflects its continued commitment to operational growth and long-term value creation.
The enhanced capacity is expected to help meet rising demand in both domestic and international markets while strengthening the company’s competitive position in the tyre industry.
SML Tires said the increased production capability would enable it to better serve customers, capitalize on growing market opportunities, and support its export ambitions.
The company expects the expansion to contribute positively to future revenues and profitability by improving economies of scale and enhancing its ability to meet higher order volumes.
