INDUSTRY OVERVIEW :

 

Air Conditioning and Refrigeration (ACR) products have now become a “very essential itemtoday. Economic liberalization in India, to a great extent, has helped this transformation. Today, with a change in the government’s outlook and an expanding public need for air conditioning and refrigeration products, the industry is producing the latest products for local sales. Both Indian firms and international giants compete in the local market.


The Indian ACR industry is growing rapidly to meet local demand. Total estimated market size in 2003-2004 is $1203 million (mn) and $1486 mn in 2005-2006. The Indian refrigeration market is expected to grow at 15 percent each year for the next 3-4 years. Increases in disposable income, reduction in excise duties, and greater availability of consumer finance will contribute to the increased demand for refrigerators. Further, due to the increasing urbanization of the Indian population, refrigerators have become an essential household machine for convenience and storage. Market penetration levels for refrigerators in the rural areas continues to be lower than in the urban areas.


The Indian air-conditioning (AC) market has been expanding because of increased investment in high-end industries and introduction of more sophisticated industrial processes (e.g., the rapid expansion of the computer and electronics industry). As with the refrigerator market, an increased disposable income, and a rationalized excise duty will continue to generate demand from the domestic users. Existing and new commercial users such as hotels, restaurants, travel agencies, and retail outlets have also contributed to the growth of Indian AC market.


Indian market entry by multinationals like Whirlpool, Electrolux, LG, Samsung, Daewoo and a significant expansion of production capacity of existing domestic players, has significantly increased the supply of ACs to meet the growing demand.


The importation of air-conditioners and refrigerators continues in small quantities, and mostly for private use rather than for resale or distribution. Until recently, the importation of refrigerators was restricted. Foreign firms are however now allowed to establish joint ventures, 100% owned operations to manufacture ACR products. The Indian industry also continues to seek out technology collaborations with other countries including the U.S.


End-users for ACR include residences, manufacturers, and service industries. Industrial end-users include the mining, packaging, building, food processing, fishing, pharmaceutical, refrigerated transport, telecommunications, computers and cold storage sectors. Commercial end-users include the banking / financial, hotel / restaurant, and health care service providers.


The Government of India (GoI) has lowered import duties on all capital goods, raw materials, and supplies as a part of its economic and trade liberalization program.
