Industry Overview
India has the most competitive auto parts manufacturing industry in the world, with
Indian automotive components being widely preferred by major automobile
manufacturing companies. The auto component companies in India are contributing
to the growth of this sector by providing genuine, cheap and reasonably priced
automotive parts.
The Indian automotive components industry has actively and quickly transformed
from a domestic market supplier, to one of the essential auto parts supplier in the
world.
The Indian auto component sector has been growing at 20 per cent a year since 2000
and is projected to maintain the high-growth phase of 15-20 per cent till 2015.
12
Growth Drivers
• Rising demand for vehicles - Vehicle production grew to around 17.9 million in
2010-11 - Global Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are entering India
to establish their manufacturing base
• Low-cost and high quality standards –Low labor costs in India have resulted in
a significant cost reduction, with international quality standards being duly
maintained. An average cost reduction of nearly 25-30 per cent has attracted
several global automobile manufacturers to set base since 1991
• Availability of low cost skilled manpower –India produces close to 0.4 million
engineering graduates every year, and the cost of entry-level engineers is as low
as US$ 8,000 a year. The country accounts for 26 per cent of the world’s
Engineering Service Outsourcing (ESO)
• Policy initiatives - De-regulation and policy initiatives such as lower excise
duties, realisation of value added tax (VAT), etc., have been implemented.
Foreign direct investment (FDI) up to 100 per cent is permitted through the
automatic route for manufacturers of automobiles and components
Industry Structure
The Indian auto component industry is large and highly fragmented. There are around
400 major players in the auto component sector. The original equipment (OE) market
is predominantly catered to by the organised sector. The 400 odd organised producers
contribute around 80 per cent to this market
Market Size
The automotive component industry's output for the financial year 2009-10 was US$
22 billion with a growth rate of 20 per cent, against financial year 2008-09. The Indian
auto component industry has the opportunity to tap around US$ 110 billion by 2020.
Major Indian auto parts makers are on track to report a strong first quarter, on the
back of robust after-sales demand and growing exports.
13
The revenue growth rate of auto ancillary companies is expected to be in line with auto
OEMs. In first quarter of the current fiscal, production by all OEMs in the auto
industry grew by about 20 per cent in comparison with the corresponding quarter of
last year, resulting in corresponding growth in customer demand.
Exports
The industry has been exporting around 13 per cent of its output. In the year 2009-
10, the industry exported goods worth US$ 3.8 billion. Principal export items include
replacement parts, tractor parts, motorcycle parts, piston rings, gaskets, engine
valves, fuel pump nozzles, fuel injection parts, filter & filter elements, radiators, gears,
leaf springs, brake assemblies & bearings, clutch facings, head lamps, auto bulbs &
halogen bulbs, spark plugs and body parts. Exports, which touched US$ 5 billion in
2010-11, are expected to grow by 20-25 per cent in 2011-12.
Recent Trends/Investments
Besides low labour costs, India’s process-engineering expertise, applied to re-designing
of production processes, has resulted in the reduction in manufacturing costs of
components. As a result, India, today, has become the outsourcing hub for several
global automobile manufacturers.
Several large Indian auto component manufacturers are in the process of substantially
investing in capacity expansion, establishing partnerships in India and abroad,
acquiring companies in foreign countries establishing Greenfield ventures, Research &
Development (R&D) facilities and design capabilities.
Japanese car major Toyota has announced an investment of nearly Rs 1,650 crore
(US$ 373.3 million) to increase the production capacity of its Indian operations by one
lakh units and for increasing localisation of components by 2014
Force Motors has will enter the passenger vehicle segment with the launch of a multi-
purpose vehicle (MPV) by 2012, for which the company will set up a new facility in
Madhya Pradesh with an initial capacity of 24,000 units per year. The company said it
14
has signed a licencing agreement with German auto major Daimler for procuring
technology for the MPV
Auto parts maker MothersonSumi Systems Ltd (MSSL) has announced its plans to
acquire an 80 per cent stake in Germany's Peguform Group from Cross Industries.
The deal is expected to be closed in 2-3 months and will be funded through debt from
Indian lenders, said VC Sehgal, Vice-Chairman, Motherson Group.
French tyre-maker Michelin's upcoming India plant in Chennai will produce its first
tyre in November 2012. The company plans to produce three lakh radial truck tyres in
the first year of operations, and cater to the domestic market, according to a top
official. Michelin is setting up a manufacturing unit at ThervoyKhaidigia industrial
area in Tiruvallur district, near Chennai, and would be investing Rs 4,000 crore (US$
904.98 million) over a seven-year period.
Policy Initiatives
The Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises has envisaged the Automotive
Mission Plan (AMP) 2006-2016 to promote growth in the sector. The plan targets to:
• Increase turnover to US$ 122 billion–US$ 159 billion by 2016 from US$ 34
billion in 2006
• Increase export revenue to US$ 35 billion by 2016
• Provide employment to additional 25 million people by 2016
Road Ahead
Going forward, the automotive component industry in India displays strong potential
in generating employment and promoting entrepreneurship in the country. The series
of new investment plans announced by global and domestic automobile
manufacturers re instates the emergence of India as a global hub for auto
components.
The boost in demand, with the growth of the automobile industry, will see the
emergence of several new players in the industry. The huge market for auto
components, and the diverse products and technology involved ensures a place and
15
role for many. Among the smaller players in the unorganized segment, the industry
could witness a shift from being standalone companies, to entering into either contract
manufacturing or being ancillary units. The newly defined rules of specialisation,
development and delivery, hold the key to success in the auto component industry.
