A significant proportion of Indian MSMEs hit by Chinese imports: Govt

17 Nov 2016 Evaluate

Minister of State for MSME Giriraj Singh has said that a significant proportion of Indian MSMEs seem to be adversely affected from Chinese imports as compared to the rest of the world. He said that “A large number of Indian Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) seem to be affected from cheap Chinese imports as imports have grown at a higher rate compared to shipments from rest of the world.”

According to data from Director General of Commercial Intelligence and Statistics, imports from China in 11 major product groups, largely manufactured by MSMEs in India, have grown at a higher rate than their respective imports from all countries combined during 2012-13 to 2015-16. During 2015-16 these 11 product groups accounted for 74% of India's total imports from China. The 11 product groups pertain to electrical and electronics, mechanical and metallurgical products, as well as chemical, glass and ceramics based items.

Further, foreign direct investment (FDI) policy places some restriction on foreign investment in certain sectors. Subject to such restrictions, foreign investors can set up enterprises in India without a lower level ceiling on investment. Such investment can be greenfield as well as in existing enterprises. Singh added that India has one of the most liberalised FDI policies in the world, wherein 100% FDI under automatic route is permitted in most of the sectors. There is only a small list of sectors where FDI is regulated subjected to government approval, cap or having other conditionalities and the FDI policy equally applies to MSME sector.
