The risk is not an immediate derailment of export momentum, but a slower, costlier route from overseas demand to dispatches and revenue, Rohan Kanwar Gupta, vice president at ICRA, tells EnterpriseAM. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why it matters: <\/strong>India\u2019s passenger vehicle exports rose <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.siam.in\/news-%26-updates\/press-releases\/auto-industry-performance-of-q4-jan--march-2026-fy-2025-26\/605\" style=\"\">17.5%<\/a><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.siam.in\/news-%26-updates\/press-releases\/auto-industry-performance-of-q4-jan--march-2026-fy-2025-26\/605\" style=\"\">y-o-y<\/a><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.siam.in\/news-%26-updates\/press-releases\/auto-industry-performance-of-q4-jan--march-2026-fy-2025-26\/605\" style=\"\">to 905k units in FY 2026<\/a>, with demand steady across the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. The Middle East and the GCC are vital export markets for India\u2019s vehicle industry, making up 20-25% of overall exports and acting as a crucial gateway to Africa and other parts of the world. \u201cAny prolonged disruption due to the ongoing Middle East conflict could therefore moderate export volumes for Indian OEMs, especially if shipping timelines, container availability, or route visibility remain constrained,\u201d Gupta notes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The ripple effects: <\/strong>A slowdown in OEM export volumes will inevitably lead to a downstream blow to India\u2019s auto component suppliers. From a logistics standpoint, rerouting ships away from the Suez Canal and around the Cape of Good Hope has already increased transit times by several weeks and caused freight rates to spike. For exporters, this translates into longer lead times, delayed export dispatches, and increased working capital requirements across the sector, Gupta tells us. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>OEMs are facing a barrage of elevated costs<\/strong>, including longer transit times, higher freight and ins. premiums, currency volatility, and expensive raw materials. \u201cOEMs are likely to look at selective price hikes to partly offset cost pressures,\u201d Gupta explains. However, companies will need to balance these hikes against the risk of dampening demand. In the near term, manufacturers could lean on a mix of cost-control measures, supply-chain adjustments, and alternate routing rather than immediately passing the full cost burden onto overseas customers. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What to watch on the credit side: <\/strong>The disruption could become a material credit risk if it leads to \u201csustained moderation in export volumes, margin compression, and elevated working capital intensity,\u201d according to Gupta. While temporary freight bumps are manageable, persistent logistics costs, inventory buildups, and delayed shipments could severely impact revenue conversion over multiple quarters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Who is most at risk?<\/strong> \u201cAt this stage, the risk appears to be more of intermittent supply-chain bottlenecks rather than an industry-wide production halt. Specialized processes such as foundries, forging, casting, and paint shops, along with smaller MSME suppliers, could be more vulnerable because they may have limited flexibility to shift quickly to alternate inputs, fuels, or suppliers,\u201d Gupta says.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Domestic demand in India remains a reliable buffer. <\/strong>ICRA expects passenger vehicle wholesale volumes to grow 4-6% in FY 2027, supported by demand momentum, indirect tax reforms, and new model launches.

The segment already makes up to 20% of the company\u2019s footprint in India, expanding at a double-digit rate as operators invest heavily in energy-management systems, cooling, switchgear, power backup, and distribution networks required to run AI-ready facilities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cThis business will contribute to a much faster pace of growth than what the rest of the core business sees<\/strong>,\u201d Sahgal told the newswire, highlighting that alongside grid modernization, data centers will be a primary growth engine for Schneider in the country. Investment is moving beyond Mumbai and Chennai into Gujarat and Rajasthan as hyperscalers, colocation operators, and enterprises build closer to users and look for integrated infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The buildout is widening:<\/strong> India is projected to see its data center capacity surge from roughly 1.5 GW today to 7 GW by 2030.

In India, Schneider\u2019s projected growth signals a broader supply-chain narrative. The expansion of data centers will drive intense demand for precision cooling, UPS systems, switchgear, transformers, and energy-management software, moving the spotlight beyond servers and cloud providers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>(** Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/tag\/artificial-intelligence\/\">artificial intelligence<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/tag\/cloud-infrastructure\/\">Cloud infrastructure<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/tag\/data-centers\/\">Data Centers<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/tag\/tech\/\">TECH<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"90026\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"90026\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">7<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">ALSO ON OUR RADAR<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/2026\/06\/01\/odisha-signs-intel-3dgs-semiconductor-mou\/\">\r\n                            Odisha signs chip substrate MoU with Intel, 3DGS                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/mena-india\/2026\/06\/01\/odisha-signs-intel-3dgs-semiconductor-mou\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();
