Automation & Robotics


The Indian automation industry is growing at an annual rate of 20 to 25 percent. With India's gradual integration with the world economy, automation will play an important role in bringing down the costs.

Besides costs, automation will also help increase productivity efficiency, aesthetics and delivery systems. Several international players are considering India as a development hub for automation products.

The Indian automation market has acquired the critical momentum to propel the instrumentation, control and automation industry to a higher growth trajectory. India has the right mix of process industry that provides excellent growth opportunities for the entire spectrum of automation products and systems.

With a gross domestic product (GDP) growth of around 7 percent, India has one of the fastest growing economies in the world, and India is moving steadily on the path of global integration. Amongst other leading indicators, India is witnessing foreign trade growth, rising domestic consumer demand, infrastructure growth, industrial revival, capacity expansion and a significant pick-up in manufacturing output and the capital goods sector. Realization is fast setting in that India's future cannot depend simply on being the “back office” of the world. Automation has a key role to play in facilitating this quest for being truly world-class and ensuring a “competitive advantage” for the Indian industry.

India, with large investments taking place in process industries, provides strong growth prospects for automation in both the near and long-term. The growing disposable income in the hands of almost a quarter of a billion people is generating a rising demand for a wide range of products. Manufacturers, lured by this opportunity, have created new production facilities in almost all vertical industries.

Because of this cycle of demand, investment and wealth creation, India is emerging as an economic growth engine. Manufacturers' search to gain sustainable competitive advantages leads them to extensively use automation.
