A verdict describes what became of management’s own words in later analysed calls. “Delayed” is a change of date, “went quiet” a target the calls stopped mentioning. None of it is a judgement on the investment. The methodology sets out how verdicts are recorded.

13 of CEAT's 25 targets were missed. See which ones, and which are quietly gone. The 3 above are the free sample; 22 more targets are in the full ledger.

What CEAT does

Based on the company's own presentations, annual report and earnings calls.

CEAT is an RPG Group flagship tyre manufacturer that designs and makes tyres for passenger and utility vehicles, two- and three-wheelers, commercial vehicles (trucks/buses) and off-highway vehicles, sold in the domestic market and exported to over 110 countries. It earns primarily by selling tyres through a large dealer/sub-dealer/outlet network in the domestic replacement and OEM markets, alongside a growing international business. In December 2024 it acquired Michelin's CAMSO off-highway construction tyres and tracks business to expand into global specialty and off-highway (OHT) markets. The company runs its own R&D centre (Halol, Gujarat) that files patents and develops new tyre technologies for its product range.
