Indian Automotive Industry: The Way Forward
The growth of the Indian auto component industry in the little over the first decade of the 21st Century is phenomenal. The industry transformed gradually in stages, from serving just the Indian market ? majority to replacement market - to global OEMs and replacement market. The Auto Component Manufacturers Association (ACMA) has significance for global recognition and has an impact on the GDP. It has a supporting role in the growth of Indian automobile sector and in the future as per the Automotive Plan 2006-16, Vision 2020:21 and the automotive sector five year plan (2012 ? 17), as projected by the Department of Heavy Industry, Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises. The growth of this subsector has a bearing on the developments and growth of the Indian automobile industry, rather it is dependent on the automobile industry growth ? locally and worldwide ? expanding and the aftermarket. This research paper highlights the growth of the Indian auto component industry relating to Investments and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in equity inflows, drawing comparison with the developments and growth of the Indian Automobile Industry, more specifically to two wheelers, passenger cars and commercial vehicle ? domestic sales and export earnings.
