2. Introduction
• The auto component companies in India are contributing to the growth of
this sector by providing genuine , cheap and reasonably priced automotive
parts.
• The industry growth was particularly visible in the exports of auto
components.
• The CAGR of the auto component exports in the five years clocked 27.5%
during 1998-2003.
• According to Forst & Sullivan, Indian auto component exports were to
touch US$1.11 billion in 2004-a 38.8% surge from the previous year as
against $578 million in 2002.
• The Indian auto component sector has been growing at 20 per cent ayear
since 2000 and is projected to maintain the high-growth phaseof 15-20
per cent till 2015

3. The Growth Journey

4. MUL indigenization
• The onset of India's liberalization policy and the subsequent arrival of
foreign auto majors came as a shot-in-the-arm for the Indian auto
component industry.
• This forced MUL to indigenize its component suppliers rather than
importing them , Maruti’s decision to localize its content was not only
because of government’s policy but also due to the cost effectiveness of
local content.
• New entrants found it difficult to compete with maruti’s pricing, as it had
already achieved 90% indigenization and had written off its initial capital
investment.
• The entry of foreign auto component markers, force the domestic
manufacturers to improve the quality.
• The domestic auto component industry contributed 87% of the needs of the
automobile sector, while the rest was imported.

6. Class segregation
• Three divisions are:
1.MNC’s that operate with wholly owned
subsidiaries or through units where they held the
controlling stake. E.g.: Delphi & Visteon, Denso
India & MICO.
2.Owned by Indian promoters/public with a
minority stake of foreign collaborators.
3.Wholly owned by Indian promoters/public.
Sundaram Brake Linings(SBL) & Sundaram
Fasteners Limited(SFL)

11. Strategies to compete
1. One obvious way for the Indian manufacturers to compete in the global export
markets is to focus on their current areas of strength . As the industry continues
to grow with new export orders from automakers some strategies that Indian
manufacturers can adopt to gain success in these markets.
2. Manufacture and export of small cars, Multi Utility Vehicles (MUV), two &three
wheelers, tractors, components should be further promoted in lieu of the
current export trends.
3. Appropriate Tariff Policy should be followed to attract further investments in the
Automobile Sector.
4. Measures should be taken to expand the domestic market.
5. Exports should be more encouraged.
6. Policy initiatives for competitiveness and development of technology should be
taken.
7. Infrastructure development around identified automotive clusters should be
undertaken.
8. Emphasis should be on more product innovation and Value added services as the
current customer demands better products and services aggressively
