BSE Auto Today: Live Auto Index, Auto Stocks, Charts & Analysis

India's automobile sector benchmark — what the BSE Auto Index is, how it's built, its leading constituents, demand drivers, and how to invest.

The BSE Auto Index is the official automobile-sector benchmark of the Bombay Stock Exchange. It tracks India's leading vehicle manufacturers and auto-ancillary companies — passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, two-wheelers, electric-vehicle (EV) makers, tyre companies and component producers. Since the auto industry is a major driver of GDP, manufacturing, exports and jobs, the index often mirrors broader economic trends. See it alongside the BSE Sensex and other sectors like BSE Bankex.
