INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

We are living in a world where volatility and uncertainty have become the New Normal. We saw a change of government in countries like Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Vietnam. Once powerful countries in Europe are now fighting for bankruptcy. We have taken growth in the developing part of the world for granted but economic growth in China and India has begun to slow. Companies that were synonymous with their product categories just a few years ago are now no longer in existence. Kodak, the inventor of the digital camera had to wind up its operations, HMV, the British entertainment retailing company and Borders, once the second largest bookstore have shut down due to their inability to evolve their business models with the changing time. Readers’ Digest, Thomson Register are no more !

 

There is another megatrend happening. The World order is changing as economic power shifts from West to East. According to McKinsey study, it took Britain more than 100 years to double its economic output per person during its industrial revolution and the US later took more than 50 years to do the same. More than a century later, China and India have doubled their GDP per capital in 12 and 18 years respectively. By 2020, emerging Asia will become the world’s largest consuming block, overtaking North America.

 

The years after the outbreak of the global financial crisis, the world economy continues to remain fragile. The Indian economy demonstrated remarkable resilience in the initial years of the contagion but finally lost ground last year. GDP growth slowed down. Currency has been weakening. There is a marked deceleration in agriculture, industry and services. Dampening sentiment led to a cut-back in investment as well as private consumption expenditure.  Inflation remained at high levels fuelled by the pressure from the food and fuel sectors. The large fiscal and current account deficit s continued to cause grave concern. It is imperative that India regains its growth trajectory of 8-9 % sooner than later. This is crucially important given the need to create gainful livelihood opportunities for the millions living in poverty as also the large contingent of young people joining the job market every year.

PROFILE

 

Subject was established under the Ministry of Railways by the Govt. of India for modernizing Indian Railway workshops. The modernization project was funded through World Bank credits. Since its establishment in 1979 subject has assisted in modernizing Indian Railways Production Units and maintenance workshops. This has involved purchasing over 9900 machines valued at Rs.8970 million. It has thus emerged as a specialized organization in the fields of manufacturing and maintenance technologies.


Subject is in a position to offer its services to those needing modernization or up gradation of their manufacturing/maintenance activities. Subject provides professional advice and a single window service in planning and procurement of machine tools and allied equipment.

 

 

BACKGROUND:

 

At the time of integration of the Indian Railway system in 1952, there were 41 repair workshops dealing with periodic overhaul of coaches, wagons and locomotives. Day-to-day repairs were handled in over 300 repair depots and sick lines.


The last quarter century of planned development of Indian Railways has witnessed extensive changes in the mode of traction as well as development of new types of coaches and wagons.  Diesel and electric locomotives have gradually replaced steam locomotives.  The number of passenger coaches in service has almost doubled.  The wagon stock holding is roughly 2.5 times that in 1951.  Financial limitations, however, did not permit development of maintenance facilities compatible with the growth of rolling stock.  Only 5 new workshops have been set up since 1952.  The increased demand for maintenance was largely catered by piece-meal expansion of the existing facilities.  Expenditure on workshops in this period was less than 2.5% of the total plan outlay on the railways.  Nevertheless, to meet the requirement of new rolling stock, three new production workshops were set up.

The problems encountered in manufacture and maintenance of the rolling stock is largely due to obsolescence of machinery and plant, diverse product mix and layout deficiencies.  The situation in respect of machinery and plant is a source of major concern.  The proportion of overage machines in 1979 had increased to 77% from 47% in 1952.  Due to paucity of available maintenance funds, an agreement was negotiated with the International Development Association of the World Bank for providing a credit of $95m for the first phase of workshop modernisation programme expected to be completed by March 1983.  Second and third phases of another 7 years envisage an estimated expenditure of Rs.4000.000 Millions inclusive of IDA Credits.


The unprecedented magnitude of this effort prompted the Indian Railways to set up a specialist organisation wholly devoted to the furtherance of this task.  Thus the Subject came into existence in 1978 to implement the modernisation programme


Subject is now the designated organisation of Indian Railways for selection, procurement and induction of modern workshop technologies and M and P.
