Apollo Tyres shares jump 3% after Q2 net profit falls 37% YoY?

Apollo Tyres’ shares rose 3% despite a 37% drop in Q2 profit to Rs 297 crore, attributed to weak demand in India and rising raw material costs. While European operations showed growth, the Indian market suffered from a slowdown in the commercial vehicle segment. Analysts maintain optimistic outlooks, citing potential for pricing improvements and robust European performance.
