India continues to be one of the fastest growing economies globally: FICCI-PwC Survey

26 Apr 2017 Evaluate

India Manufacturing Barometer (IMB) Survey, a joint survey conducted by FICCI and PwC Strategy has stated that despite some bold but disruptive policy reforms like demonetization along with global uncertainty, India continues to be one of the fastest growing economies globally. The survey pointed that Indian companies are optimistic about the prospects of the Indian economy more than the global economy; about 63 per cent of the surveyed respondents expect that growth will be in the range of 7-8 per cent.

As per survey, the manufacturing industry has shown resilience and is confident about its growth prospects amidst challenges such as unavailability of adequate raw material, pressure for increased wages and muted demand. Besides, companies are looking to increase their competitiveness by focusing on innovation by launching new product and service offerings, boosting R&D spend and investing in newer technologies. As much as 86 per cent of the survey respondent expects investments in Industry 4.0 related initiatives to increase in the next 3-5 years and 45 per cent respondents expects to benefit both from revenue growth and cost reduction or efficiency improvements

The survey which covered companies in eight key sectors including automotive and auto components, cables and transformers, capital goods, cement, chemicals, downstream metals, packaging, and plastics and polymers, has found that Indian auto sector is expected to grow moderately with 6-8% growth in passenger vehicles, primarily driven by UVs, and 0-2% growth in commercial vehicles and the chemical industry grew only by 2.1% in 2016 due to low demand.

However, the survey also noted that 62 per cent respondents expressed uncertainty about the global economy, and it noted that the downstream metals industry is largely dominated by the steel industry and in recent years, the steel industry has been impacted by competition from cheaper imports.
