The fabricated metal products industry is one of the smaller industries in the manufacturing sector of India. However, with growth in many other industries, there is an increase in derived demand for fabricated metal products. The highly fragmented and largely unorganized industry is now a focus area in the Indian engineering industry and measures are being taken by the Government of India and the industry to develop the fabricated metal products industry further. 4
The fabricated metal products industry in India Overview of the fabricated metal products industry in India The fabricated metal products industry is more unique compared to other industries due to the way in which it is organized. Compared to the larger and more mature industries such as the machinery and equipment industry and the automotive industry, the fabricated metal products industry is not as well organized. There are some ambiguities about the entire range of products being manufactured in the industry. Thus, from a statistical point of view, information regarding production, number of people employed and international trade in the industry is very limited. However, for this chapter, information has been obtained from premier industry associations like Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) and interviews of industry experts. 1 This industry is one of the more fragmented industries in the manufacturing sector in India. There are a large number of small and unorganized manufacturers in the small scale industry and few large companies in each segment. Some of the segments in the industry like railway and ship containers, forging, stamping and pressing, and containers of metals are dominated by large Public Sector Enterprises (PSEs) whereas segments like safes and vaults, gas cylinders, other fabricated metal products are dominated by Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The industry’s development has been hampered by general issues like erratic power supply, gridlocked seaports, poor infrastructure, restrictive government policies etc. Yet the industry is developing slowly and growing as domestic demand is increasing 1) The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation is responsible for compiling data on the industry. But the method of compiling data is not clear and that is why it is uncertain whether the figures are accurate. There is less information available on the industry and that is why information from industry associations, interviews of industry leaders, journals and news articles have been referred in this report. 5
