Popis: The sustained internationalization of firms of Indian origin has held the attention of academicians and practitioners alike. India’s place in the global tyres industry is far from being a prominent one. Yet, two Indian firms have chosen radically different paths to internationalize, as per the typology proposed in the article. This article takes a case study methodology approach that brings to light the antecedents, motives, and behaviors of these two firms in their internationalization journey thus far. Findings also indicate firms initially build a strong market position via delivery capabilities, and thereafter turn to brand building, followed by the quest for input capabilities.
