Industry Overview
Indian auto component industry is robustly driven by the growth in demand for
automobiles. The sector has become a lucrative business proposition for global
players, majorly owing to two factors. First, needless to say, the demand for
automobiles is increasing day by day in the country. India, a market with high
potential for the automobiles sector, is expected to witness a three-fold increase in
demand for automobiles by 2020. Secondly, all major global auto-makers are
establishing their bases here due to highly positive business environment, favorable
policies and government support.
According to a study by UK-based global financial advisory firm-Rothschild, India
would become the third largest auto industry by volumes after China and the US by
2015. This would give immense support to the growth of ancillary sector as well.
Major developments, investments and Government initiatives relating to the sector are
discussed hereafter.
12
Indian Auto Components Industry Profile
According to a recent study by the Automotive Component Manufacturers' Association
of India (ACMA), original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) account for 41 per cent of
the auto components consumed in the Indian aftermarket.
The study estimated current size of Indian components business at Rs 24,800 crore
(US$ 4.87 billion), 49.7 per cent of which is formed by two-wheeler segment.
Passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and three-wheelers follow with 24.7 per cent,
23.1 per cent and 2.5 per cent of the share respectively.
According to Arvind Kapur, President, ACMA, a large market in Indian spares business
is dominated by organised, semi-organised and a number of small, unorganised
players. He thus acknowledged the need for a process of accreditation to ensure better
customer service.
The study further projected that OEM-authorised network of service stations would
account for 20-30 per cent of the Indian auto components market by 2017 while that
of multi-brand organised service chains would grow to 5-10 per cent from 1-2 per
cent. Similarly semi-organised service centers’ and unorganised garages’ market share
would be 20-30 per cent and 45-55 per cent, respectively, in 2017.
India – The Global Auto Hub
Canada is looking for substantial investment opportunities in Indian auto components
market through the comprehensive economic partnership agreement (CEPA) which is
being discussed and negotiated by the two Governments. The agreement is likely to get
finalised by 2013. If fructified, the agreement would facilitate an annual increase of
economic output in two countries by almost US$ 6 billion and boost the two-way trade
by 50 per cent.
UK sees immense potential in the Indian auto ancillary sector, especially in the city of
Rajkot as it is known for auto components manufacturing. Peter Beckingham, British
13
Deputy High Commissioner for Western India, also indicated possible ventures
between UK and Rajkot companies in near future.
According to industry sources, Rajkot's auto component industry, with over 500
manufacturers aggregating a net turnover of around Rs 1,500 crore (US$ 294.5
million), grows at an annual rate of 15-20 per cent.
Furthermore, 60 French automobile component suppliers are contemplating on
business opportunities to set up a vendor park near Sanand in Ahmedabad district.
The proposed vendor park would accommodate tier-1 and tier-2 auto-component
suppliers who would supply spares to the recent auto entrants in the State and even
to others.
Sanand is already home to a number of global auto-makers, like Ford and Peugeot.
Indian Auto Components Industry: Key Developments and Investments
Global private equity (PE) firm Actis PE has bought 10-13 per cent stake in Indian
auto component manufacturer Endurance Technologies for about US$ 71 million.
Endurance Technologies is a part of the automotive component major Endurance
Group and caters to companies like Bajaj, Yamaha, Suzuki, Honda Motorcycles and
Scooters and Royal Enfield. Global car makers such as Daimler, Audi, Fiat and
Porsche are the company's customers in passenger car segment.
German auto component maker Schaeffler Group is on an expansion spree in India.
The company plans to invest over Rs 1,000 crore (US$ 196 million) during 2012-15 in
the country to set up a manufacturing facility and to expand its existing plants. To
support its growth, the company would also double the number of its engineers and
recruit 1, 200 employees in the country.
Federal-Mogul's new facility in Chennai will commence its operations by March 2012.
The plant, being set up for producing braking and friction materials, will initially focus
on after market products like linings and brake pads. Federal Mogul is a global
automotive components manufacturer.
14
Government Initiatives
The Government of India is in the process of forming a National Automotive Board
(NAB) which would become a formal set-up to look into the issue of recall of vehicles
and hence improve manufacturing standards. The prospective body, to oversee
technical and safety aspects of vehicles, will have representatives from all the nodal
ministries and automotive bodies such as the Automotive Research Association of
India (ARAI).
The Government of Gujarat has always been on a high to promote its industrial space
especially it's the automobile sector. In order to boost the State Government's efforts
in this regard, Gujarat Government's Industrial Extension Bureau, along with
Automotive Components Manufacturers Association, French Vehicles Equipment
Industries (FIEV) and French auto-major Peugeot, organized a seminar and business
meeting on January 9, 2011 wherein 60 French automobile component makers were
briefed on opportunities to set up vendor park near Sanand (Gujarat's auto hub) in
Ahmedabad district.
Similarly, the Government of Gujarat has also announced its plan to disburse 240
acres of land at Sanand to the All India Plastic Manufacturers Association (AIPMA) to
set up a plastic park that could attract an investment of about Rs 5000 crore (US$
981.65 million). The Government's move marks its eye for detail as the measure has
come in the light of the fact that a finished car would require about 150 kgs of plastic.
Road Ahead
Ratings agency Fitch has maintained a stable outlook towards the Indian auto
components industry for the year 2012. The industry is expected to perform well owing
to OEM’s robust demand for localized spares.
According to a report by ACMA, the Indian auto component industry would garner
US$ 113 billion of turnover by 2020-21, growing at a compounded annual growth rate
(CAGR) of 11 per cent through 2011-21. Not only domestic demand, India is poised to
scale new heights in terms of exports as well as the report estimates exports to be
15
worth US$ 29 billion by 2020-21, growing at a CAGR of 18.8 per cent through the
forecast period.
