"On brakes and other aspects of the supply chain, we are always working on reducing concentration by keeping multiple suppliers so that we create a resilient and robust supply chain," Sudarshan Venu, MD, TVS Motor Company, said, responding to a shareholder's question at the company's 33rd annual general meeting (AGM) on Friday. The shareholder had raised concerns over a potential rare earth-like supply chain concentration risks given that only two players—Bosch and Endurance Technologies—currently manufacture ABS.
