The said investment will further strengthen company's market presence in the PCR (passenger car radial) segment, he added.

The tyre maker said it has taken steps to adopt transformative measures for a resilient and more sustainable position.

The raised capital would help to continue this transformation, for example by allowing the boiler for the expansion facility to be operated using biomass rather than coal, it said.

JK Tyre shares ended 0.18 per cent up at Rs 408.10 apiece on the BSE.
