Indian engineering exports slip by 7% in April-June quarter of FY14

02 Aug 2013 Evaluate

Indian engineering exports fell by 7 percent in the April-June quarter in the current fiscal mainly due to the slowdown in the US and European Union markets. The chairman of Engineering Export Promotion Council (EEPC) Aman Chadha said that owing to the prevailing slowdown in the US and European countries, it has become imperative to search new markets for engineering exports. The US and Europe together account for around 60 per cent of the country’s total engineering exports. 

Disappointed over the Reserve Bank of India's decision of not undertaking rate cuts in its monetary policy, EEPC’s chairman said that we need to make Indian exports competitive in tough global markets where we face competition from aggressive exports from China and other emerging economies. Engineering goods exports which include exports of goods, transport equipment, capital goods, other machinery/equipment and light engineering products like castings, forgings and fasteners, constitute around one-fourth of the country's total merchandise shipments.

While, the government and the exporters are making renewed efforts to diversify and explore new markets, also trying to increase share of exports in Latin America's Pacific Alliance which holds good prospects for Indian engineering products. Recently, domestic exporters have found new markets in Africa and Latin America, but remained cautious due to reasons such as fear of payment default. Meanwhile, in order to boost the country’s export, the government, in the annual foreign trade policy, had announced a slew of measures include sops for Special Economic Zones (SEZs) and extension of the popular the Export Promotion Capital Goods (EPCG) scheme to all sectors to boost shipments.
