Abstract
It has taken a long time for India' s components industry to reach a point
where it is being taken seriously. Years of negative, restricted economic
planning meant there was a lot of ground to make up once the Indian auto
industry was deregulated in the 1990s.
Since then, an influx of overseas technology and know-how has provided the
impetus for improvements in quality and productivity, to a point where many
global companies now view India more favorably than China as a source point
for components.
It seems that global Tier 1s are increasingly confident about India' s ability
to build more complex parts, and are relocating more complicated systems work
to India rather than simply building basic parts there.
So, with India' s position and influence in the global auto industry set to
keep on growing, just-auto has decided to publish its timely, first edition of
the Indian components report.
Use this report to discover which manufacturers are shifting operations to
India, who the top component companies in India are, and what they produce,
plus what the future holds for this important emerging market.
