Status of the industry

 

The Indian Printing Industry now comprises of 1,37,280 small, medium and large printing presses spread all over the country, involving a gross investment of about RS 80,000 million. This industry provides direct employment to over 0.6 million people and indirect employment to another 0.3 million. It is natural that alongside the growth of literacy, there is a commensurate rise in demand for various inputs for the printing industry.

 

On the technological front, much development has taken place in printing industry in post independence India. Entire pre press industry has transformed from conventional pre press to computerized digital pre press along with advertisements in digital printing. Now post press and packaging is entering into hi-tech.  All this development has brought multinational corporations offering their services and products to the Indian subcontinent.  Today with Indian printers embracing high technology, printing industry is at par with international quality. This in turn has opened an immense potential for export of print products. Though India is the second most populated country in the world and literacy rate is constantly going up, there is tremendous demand for printing material. However, the printing output still stands at US$ 4 per capita compared with US$ 440 in Japan, US$ 290 in USA, US$ 290 in Germany, US$ 215 in Hong Kong, US$ 215 in Singapore etc. The per capita paper consumption in India is about 4 kg only as compared to other Asian countries covering 18 kg. and USA covers 318 kg.

 

Exports out of India

 

About three decades back India was mainly depending upon the import of not only printing machinery and equipment but also the basic raw materials like good quality of paper and other consumables. Today the scenario has altogether changed. India is participating in a very large scale in the export of printing machines from South East Asian countries in addition to its own domestic consumption. Starting from the exports of processed text material for the production of textbooks to the export of multi color printing material, commercial and security items. The main reason for this export has been the availability of skilled manpower available in the country. In some of the cases, India are still using the imported equipments and consumables but their own indigenous production is also sharing in the production of export print materials. They are exporting single color, double color, four color sheet fed, offset printing machines and newspaper rotaries to the developing as well as developed countries across the globe.  Some of the leaders are Hindustan Machine Tools, Manugraphics, J. Mhabir and Company, Auto print etc. They are also exporting the basic raw material like printing in offset plates, consumables and other inputs required on the printing machine. They have trained manpower in a limited scale in the field of printing technology and printing machine manufacturing, but there is lot of scope and potential for exports provided they manage this in a planned manner. The export of print material is being done a large scale by printers like Thomson Press, Tata Press and other big publishers in the country. Export of printing machines, pre press equipment and published items are being made to USA, CIS, African and Asian countries like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Nepal etc. Indian exports of printing material in 1999-2000 were RS 2600 million as compared to RS 2234.20 million in 1998-99.

 

As far as printing machines are concerned, manugraphics machines are being manufactured in collaboration with Germany and dominant sheet offset machines are in collaboration with Czechoslovakia. Market size of printing machinery segment of the industry is around RS 2800 million. Printing machinery exports were higher at Rs.917.0 million in year 1999-2000 as compared to RS 837.0 million in 1998-99 while imports declined to RS 1723 million in 1999-2000 as compared to Rs.2602 million in 1998-99.

 

India is working hard for the manufacturing of good quality art and quoted papers required for high quality multi color printing. For all their export works of multi color printing, they are almost depending upon the imported papers and to some extend on good quality printing inks. Ink and paper are being imported from Japan, Singapore, U.K. and Scandinavian countries. They hope to manufacture these basic raw materials to the international standards in due course of time by having collaboration with foreign manufactures.

 

Re-export of machinery imported

 

There is a big market for machinery that has been imported from Malaysia, Korea and China which is being re-exported to many countries.  The market for this is growing by the day and Chennai being a port of entry for such machinery has any number of firms dealing in this business.
