History

In 1897, the first car ran on an Indian road. Through the 1930s,cars were only imported, and in very small numbers.

An embryonic automotive industry emerged in India in the1940s. Hindustan was launched in 1942, long­time competitorPremier in 1944, building GM and Fiat products respectively.[9]Mahindra & Mahindra was established by two brothers in 1945,and began assembly of Jeep CJ­3A utility vehicles. Followingindependence in 1947, the Government of India and the privatesector launched efforts to create an automotive­componentmanufacturing industry to supply to the automobile industry. In 1953, an import substitution programmewas launched, and the import of fully built­up cars began to be restricted.[9]

The Hindustan Ambassadordominated India's automotive marketfrom the 1960s until the mid­80s

The Premier Padmini was theAmbassador's only true competitor

Restrictions under the license raj

However, growth was relatively slow in the 1950s and 1960s,due to nationalisation and the license raj, which hampered theIndian private sector. After 1970, with restrictions on the importof vehicles set, the automotive industry started to grow; but thegrowth was mainly driven by tractors, commercial vehicles andscooters. Cars were still a major luxury item. In the 1970s, pricecontrols were finally lifted, inserting a competitive element intothe automobile market.[10] However, by the 1980s, theautomobile market was still dominated by Hindustan andPremier, who sold superannuated products in fairly limitednumbers.[11] During the eighties, a few competitors began toarrive on the scene.

In 1986, to promote the auto industry, the governmentestablished the Delhi Auto Expo. The 1986 Expo was a showcase for how the Indian automotiveindustry was absorbing new technologies, promoting indigenous research and development, andadapting these technologies for the rugged conditions of India. The nine­day show was attended by thenPrime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.

Liberalisation

Eventually multinational automakers, such as, Suzuki and Toyota of Japan and Hyundai of South Korea,were allowed to invest in the Indian market, furthering the establishment of an automotive industry inIndia. Maruti Suzuki was the first, and the most successful of these new entries, and in part the result ofgovernment policies to promote the automotive industry beginning in the 1980s.[11] As India began toliberalise its automobile market in 1991, a number of foreign firms also initiated joint ventures withexisting Indian companies. The variety of options available to the consumer began to multiply in thenineties, whereas before there had usually only been one option in each price class. By 2000, there were12 large automotive companies in the Indian market, most of them offshoots of global companies.[12]

Slow export growth

Exports were slow to grow. Sales of small numbers of vehicles totertiary markets and neighbouring countries began early, and in1987 Maruti Suzuki shipped 480 cars to Europe (Hungary). Aftersome growth in the mid­nineties, exports once again began todrop as the outmoded platforms provided to Indianmanufacturers by multinationals were not competitive.[13] Thiswas not to last, and today India manufactures low­priced cars formarkets across the globe. As of 18 March 2013, global brands such as Proton Holdings, PSA Group,Kia, Mazda, Chrysler, Dodge and Geely Holding Group were shelving plans for India due to thecompetitiveness of the market, as well as the global economic crisis.[14]

In 2000, in tune with international standards to reduce vehicular pollution, the central governmentunveiled standards titled "India 2000", with later, upgraded guidelines to be known as Bharat stages.These standards are quite similar to the stringent European standards, and have been implemented in aphased manner, with the latest upgrade being implemented in 13 cities and, later, in the rest of thenation. Delhi (NCR), Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Pune, Surat,Kanpur, Lucknow, Solapur, and Agra are the 13 cities where Bharat Stage IV has been imposed whilethe rest of the nation is still under Bharat Stage III.

Manufacturing facilities

The majority of India's car manufacturing industry is evenly divided into three "clusters". AroundChennai is the southernmost and largest, with a 35% revenue share, accounting for 60% of the country'sautomotive exports, and home of the India operations of Ford, Hyundai, Renault, Mitsubishi, Nissan,BMW, Hindustan Motors, Daimler, Caparo, Mini, and Datsun.[15][16]

Near Mumbai, Maharashtra, along the Chakan corridor near Pune, is the western cluster, with a 33%share of the market. Audi, Volkswagen, and Skoda are located in Aurangabad. Mahindra and Mahindrahas an SUV and engine assembly plant at Nashik. General Motors, Tata Motors, Mercedes Benz, LandRover, Jaguar Cars, Fiat, and Force Motors have assembly plants in the area.[17][18]

The northern cluster is around the National Capital Region, and contributes 32%. Gurgaon and Manesar,in Haryana, are where the country's largest car manufacturer, Maruti Suzuki, is based.

An emerging cluster is the state of Gujarat, with a manufacturing facility of General Motors in Halol,and a planned facility for Tata Nano at their plant in Sanand. Ford, Maruti Suzuki, and Peugeot­Citroenplants are also planned for Gujarat.[19]

Kolkata with Hindustan Motors, Noida with Honda, and Bangalore with Toyota are other automotivemanufacturing regions around the country.[20][21][22]

Exports

India's automobile exports have grown consistently and reached$4.5 billion in 2009, with the United Kingdom being India'slargest export market, followed by Italy, Germany, Netherlands,and South Africa.[83]

According to the New York Times, India's strong engineeringbase and expertise in the manufacturing of low­cost, fuel­efficient cars has resulted in the expansion of manufacturingfacilities of several automobile companies like Hyundai, Nissan,Toyota, Volkswagen, and Maruti Suzuki.[84]

In 2008, South Korean multinational Hyundai Motors aloneexported 240,000 cars made in India. Nissan Motors plans toexport 250,000 vehicles manufactured in its India plant by 2011.[85] Similarly, US automobile company,General Motors announced its plans to export about 50,000 cars manufactured in India by 2011.[86]

In September 2009, Ford Motors announced its plans to set up a plant in India with an annual capacity of250,000 cars, for US$500 million. The cars will be manufactured both for the Indian market and forexport.[87] The company said that the plant was a part of its plan to make India the hub for its globalproduction business.[88] Fiat Motors announced that it would source more than US$1 billion worth autocomponents from India.[89]

In 2009 India (0.23m) surpassed China (0.16m) as Asia's fourth largest exporter of cars after Japan(1.77m), Korea (1.12m) and Thailand (0.26m) by allowing foreign carmakers 100% ownership offactories in India, which China does not allow.[3]

In July 2010, The Economic Times reported that PSA Peugeot Citroën was planning to re­enter theIndian market and open a production plant in Andhra Pradesh that would have an annual capacity of100,000 vehicles, investing € 700M in the operation.[90] PSA's intention to utilise this production facilityfor export purposes however remains unclear as of December 2010.

In recent years, India has emerged as a leading center for the manufacture of small cars. Hyundai, thebiggest exporter from the country, now ships more than 250,000 cars annually from India. Apart fromMaruti Exports' shipments to Suzuki's other markets, Maruti Suzuki also manufactures small cars for

Bajaj Auto is designing a low­cost car forRenault Nissan Automotive India, which will market the product worldwide. Renault Nissan may alsojoin domestic commercial vehicle manufacturer Ashok Leyland in another small car project.[91] Whilethe possibilities for the Indian automobile industry are impressive, there are challenges that could thwartfuture growth. Since the demand for automobiles in recent years is directly linked to overall economicexpansion and rising personal incomes, industry growth will slow if the economy weakens.[91]

Along with these ministries, auto industry executives, such as AnandMahindra (Vice Chairman and Managing Director, Mahindra & Mahindra) and Vikram Kirloskar (Vice­Chairman, Toyota Kirloskar), were involved in this task.[198] The Government has also proposed to setup a Rs 740 crore research and development fund for the sector in the 12th five­year plan during 2012­17.[198] The idea is to reduce the high cost of key imported components such as the battery and electricmotor, and to develop such capabilities locally.
