THE INDIAN MARKET
“ Although China is often named as the key driver for growth in
many industries, India, with a legal system familiar to a US based company,
and a strong workforce of engineers who speak English is the most attractive
market in the world” -
- CISCO senior vice president Howard Charney.
TOP 5 REASONS TO CONSIDER INDIA:
1. A stable, established, mature democracy which is the 4th largest
and also the fastest growing emerging economy in the world;
2. Favorable demographics: more than 550 million under 25 years old;
India as a nation is growing younger ( population in working age group
projected to increase) as the developed world faces the problem of aging;.
3. A huge reservoir of English speaking, skilled and relatively inexpensive
manpower: over 2.6 million engineers (degree and diploma holders), 814,000
software professionals, growing every year.
4. Well-developed banking, with over 67,000 branches and banking practices
conforming to international best standards -net non performing assets
ratio for all commercial banks 1.2%.
5. A sophisticated, well regulated capital market: 23 stock exchanges
of which the two largest, the National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock
Exchange rank no 3 and 5 by number of transactions.
For all these reasons and more, India today is a country on the move,
destined to occupy its place in the comity of nations as a major economic
power. It has attracted favorable international attention thanks to
its recent remarkable growth as well as its undoubted potential to sustain
this performance for years to come. Thus, the Goldman Sachs famous BRIC
report lists India as the only country with the prospect of
registering at least 5 % growth in GDP for the next fifty years.
This offers exciting opportunities to industry and business the world over to partner India in its growth process since India today has perhaps one of the friendliest Foreign Direct Investment policy regimes.
INDIA: TOP 5 VERTICALS TO SELL TO :
1. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SECTORT: the IT sector is
India’s fastest growing sectors with over 50 percent average annual
compounded growth since 1991. Today, two in five of the Fortune 500
companies outsource their software requirements to India. Opportunities
in the IT sector include communication infrastructure, optic fiber cable,
gateways, satellite-based communication wireless, IT-enabled services,
IT enabled education, data centers and server farms, and software development.
Companies like Infosys, Wipro, TCS , Satyam are world class IT companies
from India.
2. TELECOMMUNICATION SECTOR: India’s telecom
sector has been growing at a rate of about 20 percent per annum for
the past few years. India’s wireless market by far is the fastest
growing market in the world. The number of cellular subscribers has
increased from 1 million in 1998 to 41 million in 2004. India is looking
forward to achieve an annual growth rate of 13% in cable TV subscribers,
18% in TV set owners, 27% in PC penetration, 28% in cell phones, 30%
in telephones and 58% in internet subscribers in the next four years.
The proportion of households moving towards richer and well to do category
is going up in India. There also exist huge untapped rural potential.
Reliance Telecomm, Bharti Telecom, Tata Telecom, MTNL are the major
telecom players.
3. ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY: The entertainment industry
is one of the fastest growing verticals in India growing at 18% compounded
and expected to touch USD 10 billion by 2009. While content will remain
the king, it is technology that will propel this sector into the next
decade. Digitalization is the way forward as it will deliver entertainment
to the consumer faster, cheaper and in a format easily accessible.
4. HEALTHCARE SECTOR: The healthcare sector has been
growing at a rapid pace in the past few years. The windfall began when
the developed world discovered that it could get quality service for
less than half the price. With an annual growth rate of 30 percent,
India is already inching closer to Singapore, an established healthcare
hub that attracts 150,000 medical tourists a year. With the expected
increase in the pharmaceutical market, the total healthcare market could
rise from $22.2 billion currently (5.2% of GDP) to $69 billion (8.5%
of GDP) by 2012.
5. RETAIL SECTOR: The retail sector in India is witnessing
a huge revamping exercise as traditional markets make way for new formats
such as departmental stores, hypermarkets, supermarkets and specialty
stores. A.T. Kearney has estimated India's total retail market at $202.6
billion which is expected to grow at a compounded 30 per cent over the
next five years making it the 2nd most attractive emerging retail destination
in the world. Pantaloon, Shoppers Shop, Trent are the leaders in this
vertical.
