Industry Overview

 

India has the 3rd largest education system globally and has a network of more than 1 million schools and 18000 higher education institutions. India's population in the age group of upto 24 years constitutes 52% of the total population. This showcases that more than half of the country's population falls in the target market for education and related services. The Indian education sector is estimated to be USD 28bn in size, and is expected to be at USD 47bn over a period of 5-6 years. This sector is favoured by encouraging Indian demographics, with 673mn (60%) of the population below 30 years of age (median age: 25 years). The high illiteracy (62%) and drop-out rates - 88% of the population enrolls for primary education, albeit only 11% of the total eligible population enrolls for higher education vs. 80% for developed countries underline the need for investment in education sector in India. Private final consumption expenditure on education is on the rise. This shows that with an increase in per capita income, people are willing to spend more on education once their basic needs of food and clothing are satisfied. Exciting prospects lie ahead for the Indian Education sector. We believe that segments like multimedia, pre schools, K- 12 and higher education provide huge opportunities within the education sector. Being in its nascent stage, we expect the sector to grow at a strong pace over the next few years. With robust growth in the service sector in India, it is expected that further proliferation in demand for quality educational services and growth in this sector. Government Expenditure on Education set to increase India spends 2 - 4% of their GDP on education along with peers like Brazil, Russia and China. Developed countries spend anywhere between 5-6%. In order to convert the vast young population of India into a resource driven force, India will have to incur far higher expenditure on education going forward. The Government propose to increase the education expenditure to 5% of GDP from the current levels of 3%. The Government has taken several measures to improve education at the elementary level in the country, the major ones being the implementation of the right of children to free and compulsory education (RTE) Act 2009. The PPP model for education proposed in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan talks about minimal government and social control over education and there was an emphasis about privatisation, and the commercialisation of education using public funds. The plan proposes setting up 6,000 new model schools in secondary education, affiliated to CBSE. Of these, 2,500 (Jawahar Kendriya Vidyalayas) are to be established in the PPP model. The intention is to set up these schools in the backward regions and remote areas where good schooling facilities do not exist, so that quality education can be made available to students in these regions. The Government's Planning Commission has decided to set up these schools by 2014 and they will have the capacity to educate 6.5mn students, out of which 2.5mn would be from deprived sections of the society. Each school will have about 2,500 students and 1,000 of whom will be from the backward sections - they will just be charged token fees only. Half of these 1,000 students will be from the scheduled castes/scheduled tribes (SC/ST) background, paying just INR 25 per month, whereas the remaining will be from poor families, requiring to pay just INR 50 per month. The remaining costs of these students will be reimbursed by the Union Government to the schools. The schools are free to admit any one to the remaining 1500 seats and charge any amount of fee. It is estimated that the government will pay INR 100.5bn until 2017 towards these obligations. The Indian Government aims to improve the Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) in higher education from 11% in 2009 to 30% in 2020, the corresponding enrolments being 17mn in 2009 to 29mn by 2018, requiring an additional 12mn seats over this period. With the introduction of Foreign Educational Institutions Bill 2010, Foreign Universities and education providers will be allowed to enter India for providing educational services. The bill also allows for tie-ups with current private institutions within the Country. The fees charged by them would not be regulated by the Government. In addition to this, the bill should also help reverse the annual USD 4 bn outflow by 1,60,000 Indians studying abroad. Restrictive and ambiguous regulations around private participation for instance, the requirement that schools be run as non-profit institutions, have been roadblocks to sector capitalisation. We believe the recent initiatives by the Government such as the Foreign Educational Institution Bill 2010, are harbingers of potential deregulation and increasing acceptance of private  companies in the sector.

 

Budget allocation - 2011-12

 

The growth and development of the Company has a significant impact on the Education system and standards it is capable of offering. India has made huge advancement in the Education sector as per the statistics. Every year, the Union Budget makes an attempt as to broaden the education standards in the country. The 2011 Union budget is not any different. In the Union Budget 2011-12, an amount of Rs.52,057 Crore is set aside for education which is an increase of 24 per cent over the current year. In the Union Budget 2011, conventional programs like Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan and Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan have been given importance as they have helped to make remarkable uplift in education. The Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan is intended for the enlargement and growth mainly in the primary education. The aim of this flagship program was to attain universalisation of primary schooling at an acceptable level by 2010. The present rules of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan have been modified recently by putting into practice the "Right of Children to free and Compulsory Education" which has been enforced from April 1, 2010 onwards. As for the year 2011-2012, in the Union Budget, the Ministry has put forward a proposal to apportion an amount of Rs.21,000 Crore, which is almost 40% higher than that of the last year, which was of Rs.15,000 Crore in the Budget for 2010-11. An improved centrally sponsored proposal, to introduce Vocational TrainingPrograms at the Secondary Education level, will come in to force from 2011-12 onwards in order to focus on better employability of youth in the country. The higher education sector has been given huge importance in India, as it is the power tool which helps to build the country's knowledge base. The Union Budget 2011 has given more priority for the improvement of access of higher education to students along with the improvement in equity and excellence. Other main policy initiatives in the Higher and Technical Education are of the general expansion of various universities and colleges. Special Grants have been provided as for the construction and maintenance of Womens' hostels. There will be scholarships to students opting for higher education and many schemes have been implemented to subsidise interest on education loans for professional courses. This has been introduced in order to encourage higher education among students from the economically backward category. There has also suggestions of making new interventions in order to attract and retain talented teaching staff in the higher and technical education sector.Union Budget 2011 has offered a significant hike for the promotion of education and for the implementation of Vocational Training Programs at the secondary education level which will positively help in increasing the employability of youth community of the country. This will help the country to craft a working class of youth who are competent and will further balance the demand and supply condition. This in turn helps the country to become stable during economic upheavals, besides also propelling it forward in the Endeavour to be a knowledge oriented economy.

encouraging private groups to play a key role in helping solve the macro-problem.

OPPORTUNITES

 

Our Company believes that the inefficiencies in the current education system, such as lack of infrastructure, low literacy rates, high dropout rates and lack of adequately trained teachers, provide a huge opportunity for private players to plug the gap by addressing the demand through a mix of products and services which will become known for excellence and effectiveness. The Indian middle class is willing to pay for quality education, as it is strongly believed to be an important pre-requisite for securing a job with good pay. As the quality of education in government schools needs improvement, this creates a tremendous opportunity for private players offering quality education. The propensity to pay for this is increasing with time, thus creating a huge and growing market. In addition to the above, this sector is fairly insulated from any potential market downturn. Low levels of enrolment at the tertiary level provides a huge market for private players in vocational training. India ranks low in terms of the percentage of population with a formal vocational training. Several industries like aviation, retail, finance and IT/ITES are already facing manpower shortages in India as the economy matures. Additionally, the phenomenal growth seen in sectors like infrastructure and telecom over the last few years has created several job opportunities and a huge demand for relevant talent - a gap that can be plugged by private

players addressing the demand for education.

 

OUTLOOK

 

Strong macro growth drivers can be witnessed in terms of burgeoning middle class with increasing income levels and an unmet demand for quality education all of which indicate favourable demographics for India's population. While the entry barriers are likely to stay, the recent enactment of the RTE Act by the Government gives every child in the age group of 6-14 years, the right to demand free elementary education. As a result of this, there is vast opportunity for private players to participate and excel in the education dissemination process. The changing mindset of the government, to encourage private participation should usher a process

of accelerated evolution in the Indian Education Sector.
