This Week’s Spotlight Story
A deep dive into the headline that defined market conversations.
Rare Earth Metals Emerge as a Key Watchpoint for Automakers
Rare earth metals have emerged as one of the most strategic inputs in modern manufacturing, critical to technologies ranging from electric motors to advanced electronics. China controls over 90% of global processing capacity. Recent export restrictions by China have reignited concerns about the stability of global supply chains for companies betting on electric mobility.
Amid rising uncertainty, automakers have reached out to the Prime Minister’s Office and key ministries. They are urging the government to address the rare earth magnet issue at the policy level. This reflects how serious and critical the supply chain risk has become.
These global pressures are now showing up in company updates. In its latest quarterly results, Bajaj Auto said that delays in getting rare earth magnets from China could affect its electric vehicle production. If the supply doesn’t improve soon, the company warned that EV production could be hit as early as July.
Interestingly, this caution comes alongside a strong financial performance for the January–March 2025 quarter. Bajaj Auto reported a net profit of ₹1,801 crore, beating estimates. This growth was primarily driven by a 14% rise in motorcycle exports and favorable forex movements. The company’s overall revenue from operations rose 9% QoQ to ₹12,646 crore, with total vehicle sales across two- and three-wheelers, up around 4%.
