India Machine Tools Industry

Industry Overview

India is the 18th largest producer of machine tools in the world. The Machine Tools industry consists of about 450 manufacturing units, of which about 150 are in the organized sector and international companies like Doosan, DMG & Makino amongst others which import machines for selling. The top ten manufacturers account for almost 70% of the output. Domestic manufacturers account for about 45% of the total Indian machine tool market.

The Indian Machine Tool Sector has had a stagnant growth since the beginning of 2000 as investment in the manufacturing sector slowed down considerably. In early 2002, Indian Engineering Sector, especially the automotive sector, witnessed increased investments as global majors started to outsource manufacturing to India. This led to a spurt in demand for machine tools. The machine tool industry, since then, has been growing at a healthy rate.

The machine tool Industry in India is now in a position to export general purpose and standard machine tools to even industrially advanced countries. With Index of Industrial Production touching new highs and emphasis on capital investment by the government, the Machine Tool Industry is all set to witness unprecedented growth.

Other Factors

Growing per-capita income and disposable income which is resulting in increase in consumption Growing stature of India in the global market as a sourcing hub for auto components and other manufacturing industry products. Increase in export of cars, especially small cars, from India to the rest of the world. Strong and growing domestic demand for mobile phones, personal computers, consumer, medical, strategic and automotive electronics and other consumer durables Increasing demand for telecom infrastructure equipment due to increase in tele-density from the present 100 per 1000 to 220 by 2007. Push to the infrastructure of the country by the government resulting in demand for capital goods. Rising defence expenditure and opening up of the defence equipment manufacturing to the private sector. Increasing awareness of the technologically efficient products and the adaptation of same by the manufacturers.

India Machine Tools Industry

Challenges

Used machinery market is big in India and is expected to grow at around 30% this year. As the cost of new machines is still high due to import duties, used machines are a big challenge for machine tool companies importing new machines. Time required to deliver a machine after placing an order is about 8- 10 months which is a concern for the Industry. Technical Support and Service of players importing machines is a major concern as Indian customers are very specific about the servicing and usage aspect aligned with purchase of machinery. Price is another important area of concern. Indian companies prefer to pay premium on a machine which has product features second to best but is excellent in terms of technical service. This again poses problem for technically sound international companies as they dont have a good service network compared to Indian companies. Dollar depreciation is a concern for Indian Machine Tool Players. Local players are upgrading themselves technologically by entering into collaboration with other International players. This would increase the competition in the market.

India Machine Tools Industry

Due to slow down in the machine tool market till early 2002, the vendors of machine tools companies reduced production. The vendors have not been able to ramp up the capacity since then. As a result, machine tool manufacturers havent been able to expand as desired. This shortage in supply is a big concern for machine tool companies aspiring to expand rapidly. Even though India produces one of the largest numbers of engineers in the world today, most of them of opt for IT related fields. As a result, machine tool industry is facing a crunch of engineers. Also there is shortage of CNC machine operators in the country which is hampering technology adoption.

India Machine Tools Industry

Import Market

Imports account for about 40-50 per cent of total consumption of machine tools. In the calendar year 2006, a total of 20,050 metal cutting machine tools worth Rs.27,847 million and 3,717 metal forming machine tools worth Rs.10,089 million were imported. By and large, imports are restricted to specialized requirement not produced in India. These include high speed, high precision machines and heavy-duty machines. A few users, who export their products, do import their capital goods under the Export Promotion and Credit Guarantee scheme on price consideration. Due to price advantage, several companies have imported pre-owned machines. The current import tariff on machine tools is about 33 percent. Industry sources expect it to be lowered in the coming years. This would result in increased competition from foreign multi-national even though the implementation of VAT has worked towards the advantage of local manufacturers.

Used Machine Tools Market

As India is a cost sensitive country, the demand for used machinery in the country is very high. Seeing the potential, international big names like DMG have started giving guarantees on there used machines. Apart from this, used machines of almost all the international companies are being imported into the country. Used machine tools form a major chunk of the machine tools market of India currently. High import duties coupled with long delivery time are only adding to the demand for used machines. There are large numbers of retro-fitters and used machine dealers in India who import machines and after some repairs sell them to the local customers. The cost of retro-fitting is very low in India as compared to other countries. This helps in keeping low cost of used machine tools. With the demand for machine tools reaching new heights due to burgeoning economy, the demand for used machine tools is only going to increase.

India Machine Tools Industry

Technical Centres for Training

Due to shortage of skilled manpower and growing demand of Tools and dies in the country, particularly in the SSI sector, Government of India have decided to assist the State Governments to set up Mini Tool Room and Training center. There are about 20 centers all over India catering to the requirement. These centres have proved to be a boon to Machine tool Industry. It has provided the base for training and development of the manpower in the industry and thus improve productivity.

India Machine Tools Industry

Government Regulations

100% FDI is allowed in the Machine Tool Industry. Machine tools manufacturers are exempt from obtaining an industrial licence to manufacture. Machine tool Manufacturers are free to select the location of their project. Only specific items under machine tools are reserved for production by the small scale industry. Import duties have been constantly reduced to promote increased import and usage of machine tools. Manufacturing units of machine tools and consumer companies can take benefit of the EPCG scheme. EPCG scheme allows import of capital goods for pre production, production and post production at 5% Customs duty which otherwise would be 12.5% subject to an export obligation equivalent to 8 times of duty saved on capital goods imported under EPCG scheme to be fulfilled in 8 years reckoned from Authorisation issue-date.

India Machine Tools Industry

Future Outlook

Machine Tool Industry is in a position to export general purpose and a standard machine tool to even industrially advanced countries. The industry, however, lacks in design and engineering capability to undertake very high precision CNC Machines. Some companies have taken up manufacture of CNC Machines, but there is a need to upgrade research and development in this field. Indian machine tools are manufactured to the international standard of quality / precision and reliability. A number of collaborations have also been approved for bringing in the latest technology in this field of modern machine tools and the industry is now exporting conventional as well as NC/CNC high - tech machine tools.

With the boom in the manufacturing sector, and growth in exports due to growing acceptance of Indias technical prowess, the demand for machine tools is only going to increase. By overcoming some of its engineering and designing deficiencies, and utilizing the available skilled manpower fully, India can become the global hub for machine tools in the coming years.
