I would much rather have genuine Indian parts than aftermarket parts made in China. For example, the genuine Indian luggage rack weighs 3 lb, 13 oz but the aftermarket one weighs 2 lb, 13 oz. The Indian part weighs 1 lb more which is 35% heavier stronger? The OEM Indian pad has hidden staples, smoother stitching and flush studs as opposed to the import with exposed staples, rippled bumpy stitching edges and studs that look like they are falling out.
