LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

AUTO INDUSTRY

 

The Indian automobile industry is going through a technological change where each firm is engaged in changing its processes and technologies to sustain the competitive advantage and provide customers with the optimized products and services. Starting from the two wheelers, trucks, and tractors to the multi utility vehicles, commercial vehicles and the luxury vehicles, the Indian automobile industry has achieved tremendous amount of success in the recent years.  The well-developed Indian automotive industry ably fulfils this catalytic role by producing a wide variety of vehicles: passenger cars, light, medium and heavy commercial vehicles, multi-utility vehicles such as jeeps, scooters, motorcycles, mopeds, three wheelers, tractors etc.

 

The automotive sector is one of the core industries of the Indian economy, whose prospect is reflective of the economic resilience of the country. Continuous economic liberalization over the years by the government of India has resulted in making India as one of the prime business destination for many global automotive players. The automotive sector in India is growing at around 18 per cent per annum.

 

The Indian automotive industry started its new journey from 1991 with delicensing of the sector and subsequent opening up for 100 per cent FDI through automatic route. Since then almost all the global majors have set up their facilities in India taking the production of vehicle from 2 million in 1991 to 9.7 million in 2006 (nearly 7 per cent of global automobiles production and 2.4 per cent of four wheeler production).

 

The cumulative annual growth rate of production of the automotive industry from the year 2000-2001 to 2005-2006 was 17 per cent. The cumulative annual growth rate of exports during the period 2000-01 to 2005-06 was 32.92 per cent. The production of the automotive industry is expected to achieve a growth rate of over 20 per cent in 2006-07 and about 15 per cent in 2007-08. The export during the same period is expected to grow over 20 per cent.

 

 

Advantage India

 

India holds huge potential in the automobile sector including the automobile component sector owing to its technological, cost and manpower advantage. Further, India has a well-developed, globally competitive Auto Ancillary Industry and established automobile testing and R&D centres. The country enjoys natural advantage and is among the lowest cost producers of steel in the world. The Indian automobile industry today boasts of being the largest three wheeler second largest two wheelers manufacturers in the world, world largest motorcycle manufacturer is in India, second largest tractor manufacturer in the world, fifth largest commercial vehicle manufacturer in the world and third largest car market in Asia.

Production

 

One of the largest industries in India, automotive industry has been witnessing impressive growth during the last two decades. Abolition of licensing in 1991, permitting automatic approval and successive liberalization of the sector over the years have led to overall development of the automobile industry. The freeing of the industry from restrictive environment, on the one hand, helped it to restructure, absorb new technologies, align itself to global developments and realize its potential and on the other hand, this has significantly increased industry's contribution to overall industrial growth in the country. The automobile industry witnessed a growth of 19.35 percent in April- July 2006 when compared to April- July 2005.

 

 

 

Domestic Sales

 

Ψ      The figures for April-January 2008 over April-January 2007 indicate that domestic sales of automobiles decelerated with a negative growth rate of (-) 4.82 percent.

 

Ψ      The cumulative growth of the Passenger Vehicles segment during April-January 2008 was 12.79 percent. Passenger Cars grew by 12.75 percent, Multi Purpose Vehicles by 23.60 percent and Utility Vehicles by 8.95 percent in April-January 2008 compared to the same period last year.

 

Ψ      In April- January 2008, the Commercial Vehicles segment grew by 2.98 percent over the same period in 2007. Light Commercial Vehicles recorded a growth of 13.84 percent; however, Medium & Heavy Commercial Vehicles witnessed a fall by 4.55 percent.

Auto Components Industry

 

Surge in automobile industry since the nineties has led to robust growth of the auto component sector in the country. In tandem with the industry trends, the Indian component sector has shown great advances in recent years in terms of growth, spread, absorption of new technologies and flexibility. Indian auto component industry has seen major growth with the arrival of world vehicle manufacturers from Japan, Korea, US and Europe. Today, India is emerging as one of the key auto components center in Asia and is expected to play a significant role in the global automotive supply chain in the near future.

 

The auto parts industry has emerged as one of India's fastest growing manufacturing sectors and a globally competitive one. The auto components industry in India is dominated by around 500 key players, which contribute more than 85 percent of India's production. The industry has very deep forward and backward linkages with almost every other engineering manufacturing sector of the economy. It supports industries like automobiles, machine tools, steel, aluminum, rubber, plastics, electrical, electronics, forgings and machining.

 

India has also emerged as an outsourcing hub for auto parts for international companies such as Ford, General Motors, Daimler Chrysler, Fiat, Volkswagon, and Toyota.

 

India enjoys cost advantage with regard to castings and forgings. The manufacturing costs in India are 25 to 30 percent lower than its western counterparts. India's competitive advantage does not come from costs alone, but from its full service supply capability.

 

To encourage the smooth growth of the industry, the Government of India has allowed automatic approval for foreign equity investment up to 100 percent of manufacture of auto components. Further, the engineering export promotion council under the aegis of Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India, over the years has been engaged in promoting exports of engineering goods including auto parts. Besides, the Automotive Component Manufacturers' Association of India (ACMA) represents the Indian auto component industry. The association is engaged in promoting trade, technology upgradation, quality enhancement, and collection and dissemination of information.

 

Exports of auto-components

 

India is being preferred as low cost country by various global OEMs for sourcing auto components for their worldwide production. As a result of this, Indian auto component industry's export scenario has changed. Now, 75 per cent of its export is directed to OEM and rest is feeding the after sales market overseas. while auto component exports grew by 40 per cent in 2004-05 to a level of US$ 1.4 billion, it registered a growth rate of 46 per cent in 2005-06 and crossed US$ 2 billion mark. A high growth of over 40 per cent is expected to materialize in 2006-07 as well. Total export was of the order of Rs. 6237 crore during the year 2004-05 and Rs. 9127 crore during the year 2005-06.

 

 

Foreign Direct Investment

 

The Indian auto industry with a turnover of US$ 12 billion and the auto parts industry with a turnover of US$3 billion offer excellent scope for FDI. Automatic approval for foreign equity investment upto 100 per cent of manufacture of  automobiles and component is permitted. The automobile industry is delicensed  Import of components is freely allowed  Automotive Mission Plan 2016.

 

The Government of India is drawing up an Automotive Mission Plan 2016 (AMP 2016) that aims to make India a global automotive hub. To maintain the high rate of growth of the automotive industry and to retain the attractiveness of Indian market and further enhancing the competitiveness of Indian companies, the Government has prepared the mentioned ten-year Automotive Mission Plan. The idea is to draw a futuristic plan of action with full participation of the stakeholders and to implement it in mission mode to meet the challenges coming in the way of growth of industry. Through this Automotive Mission Plan, Government also wants to provide a level playing field to the players in the sector and to lay a predictable future direction of growth to enable the manufacturers in making a more informed investment decision.
