India’s engineering export declines by 14% in September 2011

24 Oct 2011 Evaluate

India’s exports from engineering sector has registered a decline of 14% in the month of September on the back of slowdown in the US and European nations. As per the data of Engineering Export Promotion Council (EEPC), exports from engineering sector stood at $7.1 billion in September 2011 compared to $8.3 billion in September 2010.

In last financial year, the sector had contributed around $60 billion in the India’s exports of $245.9 billion. In the current financial year, India’s exports performance has been impressive. Despite the slowdown in US and decline in business confidence in European economy, country’s exports during the first half of the current financial year surged by the 52% to $160 billion.

However, after several months of surge in exports from the sector, exports have declined in September because of the economic slowdown in the western markets. The engineering exports in April-August 2011 had surged by 125%, aggregating to $40 billion in the April-August 2011.

Market experts are of the view that the situation is not expected to improve in the coming months. The declining trend in exports may continue in the coming two quarters of 2011-12. The US and European markets together account for more than 40% of the country’s engineering exports. Engineering exports include transport equipment, capital goods, other machinery/equipment and light engineering products like castings, forgings and fasteners.

Expressing concern over the adverse impact of global uncertainty on the Indian Economy, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee on October 22, said 'when the world sneezes, India runs risk of catching a cold...Not surprisingly, the economic crisis in Europe and the slowdown in the US are impacting us adversely.'
