The continued growth of India's machine tool industry contains unlimited business opportunities

It is reported that the Indian government will invest a lot of funds for infrastructure construction in the coming years, which will provide a lot of opportunities for Chinese companies in India. According to data from the Indian Industry Federation, growth in 41 industries is expected to reach 20% in 121 manufacturing industries. The Indian government has implemented free approval procedures for foreign investment in its engineering industry and has offered tax incentives for related imported equipment.

According to Gardner Publications (Inc.), India was the 7th largest machine tool consumer in the world in 2011, and its machine tool industry ranks 16th in the world. In 2011, the output value of India's machine tools was 576 million US dollars, the consumption amounted to 2.352 billion U.S. dollars, the export machine tools were 0.28 billion U.S. dollars, and the import machine tools were as high as 1.804 billion U.S. dollars. It can be seen that India's dependence on imported machine tools reached 77%.

The continuous growth of the Indian machine tool industry depends on the huge demand brought about by the rapid development of its domestic automobile and parts industry. According to the Indian Automobile Parts Association, by 2018, the Indian automobile, motorcycle and parts industry will need at least 1.5 billion U.S. dollars annually to purchase production equipment. In addition, the Indian government is actively intensifying infrastructure construction, such as the construction machinery required for the construction of railways, airports, and roads, transportation machinery, production textiles, clothing, and shoe-making machinery, etc., which will all contribute to the growth of demand for Indian machine tools in the future.

According to industry analysts, the upstream raw materials of India's machinery and equipment manufacturing sector have developed quite well. Besides the country's own production of iron ore, it is one of the major steel-producing countries in the world. In the secondary processing industry of iron and steel materials in the middle reaches, due to the absence of technical barriers in the casting and forging industries, and the low cost of primary labor in India, many countries began to purchase from Indian OEMs, especially in the foundry industry where the pollution problem is more serious. In the downstream cooperation industry, India is not a traditional industrial country. The industrial division of labor in developed countries and regions cannot be realized in India. Especially for precision machining, because India's machine tools are relatively backward, it would be difficult to seek qualified precision component suppliers. Other related industries such as motors and accessories of CNC parts are not very likely to seek qualified suppliers in India. Therefore, if you invest in the field of Indian machinery and equipment, it is currently more feasible to assemble components such as imported parts.
