    INDIAN AUTO COMPONENT INDUSTRY

    Key component segments

    Engine components

    Engine components fall into three broad categories - core engine components, fuel delivery

    system and others. This segment includes products such as pistons, piston rings, engine valves,

    carburettors, crank shafts, sump connecting rod etc. These are the most critical components and

    require high level of co-ordination between component manufacturer and OEM. This segment,

    accounting for 31 per cent of component market (by value), has seen major technical

    advancements with improved designs for optimal fuel consumption and lesser emission.

    Drive transmission and steering components

    This segment, accounting for around 19 per cent of auto component market, includes

    components like gears, wheels, steering systems, axles and clutches.

    Body and chassis

    This segment accounts for 12 per cent of auto component market.

    Suspension and braking components

    This segment includes components like brakes, brake linings, leaf springs and shock absorbers

    and accounts for 12 per cent of the auto component market.

    Equipment

    This segment, accounting for 10 per cent of the market, includes components like headlights,

    dashboard instruments, wiper motors, electric horns etc.

    Electrical components

    The main products in this segment include starter motors, generators, spark plugs, ignition coil,

    flywheel magnet, voltage regulator, electric ignition and distributors. This is one of the major

    upcoming segments, forming 9 per cent of the Indian component industry. Digital Twin Spark-

    plug Ignition (DTSI) mechanism is the latest concept in the automobile industry.

    Others

    Sheet metal components and plastic moulded components are two of the major components in

    this category. Around 7 per cent of the market is accounted for by other components not

    included in the above segments.

    Industry structure and competition

    Auto component industry is fragmented and predominantly controlled by the unorganised

    sector. Organised segment accounts for only 30-35 per cent of the domestic sales. There are

    around 500-600 units in the organised segment, while the unorganised segment has presence of

    more than 6,000 units. Despite Indias auto component industry producing US$ 20 billion worth

    output, the top-line of hardly 40-45 players exceed US$ 100 million. Some of the major

    domestic auto components manufacturing groups in India include TVS, Rane, Amalgamations,Kalyani, Sona, Rico, Minda and Amtek, amongst others. The organised segment faces

    competition from counterfeiters as well. According to the industry, counterfeit market is

    estimated to be as large as US$ 1 billion.

    On account of the relatively larger size, scalability and better financial strength than the

    unorganised segment, the OEM market is primarily catered by the units in the organised

    segment. The units in the unorganised segment attempt to find their fortunes amidst fierce

    competition in replacement market. Many players in the unorganised segment are also involved

    in job work and contract manufacturing for the organised sector.

    The global key auto makers have brought along the international component suppliers into India.

    Major international auto component manufacturers like Lear Corporation, Delphi, Visteon, Mando,

    ZF Steering, Bosch, Motherson Sumi, Denso etc have established their strong presence in India. The

    entry of global manufacturers enabled introduction of new technologies, new products

    Importance to the economy

    The auto component industry may not seem important to the economy in terms of its directcontribution to the GDP (2-3 per cent) or to the exchequer (approximately 2-3 per cent) or to the

    foreign exchange earnings (2 per cent of Indias exports in value). However, this industry is

    indirectly very important, as it employs close to 10 million people directly and indirectly, which

    makes it significant amongst the Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) sector.

    Major Clusters

    The component industry, being ancillary to the automobile industry, has been primarily developed

    in and around automobile manufacturing clusters. National Capital Region (NCR) in north, Pune

    and Aurangabad belt in west and Chennai & Bangalore belt in south are the key automobile

    manufacturing hubs in India. There are some OEM plants in Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand and West

    Bengal as well. Tier-I and Tier-II component suppliers generally have their plants located within the

    vicinity of the OEMs manufacturing unit. Nevertheless, small component manufacturers especially

    in the unorganized segment primarily catering the replacement market are spread across the

    country.

    Players like Asahi Glass, Jai Bharat Maruti, Sona Koyo, Omaxe and Bharat Seats are the key

    suppliers in the organised segment in north Indian automobile cluster around NCR. North India

    has disadvantage of being land locked with large distance from port. However, the Government

    has responded well by setting up Inland Container Depot at Tughlakhabad to facilitate exports.

    Similarly, the western India automobile cluster in Pune and Aurangabad is supported by Tata

    Autocomp, Bharat Forge, Bosch and Lear, amongst others. This region has access to Mumbai

    and JNPT port as well as Kandla in Gujarat. Visteon, Delphi and Bosch are some of the

    suppliers that support the automobile cluster in southern India. This region finds Chennai,Tuticorin and Kochi ports in its close proximity. With Gujarat emerging as a new centre of

    Government PoliciesCustoms Duty

    Customs duty rates determine the protection government gives to the domestic industry. Customs

    duty on auto components has been reduced over the years. Simultaneously, the customs duty on

    inputs has also been reduced wherever the duty was high. The duty on output is higher than that on

    inputs (equal in case of catalytic converter), which suggest favorable duty structure. Reduction in

    customs duty on auto components comes in line with the increasing indigenization by the OEMs.

    Excise Duty

    Excise duties on auto components have been drastically reduced in the last year itself, in line

    with the overall reduction in the rates of excise duty in order to provide stimulus to the economy

    that was reeling under the pressure of global financial crisis. Being a fragmented industry,

    almost the entire benefit of the excise duty cut has been passed on to the end-users.

    Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) policy

    The economic reforms in 1990s brought around radical changes in the Indian business environment.

    Though the pace of reforms was slow, de-licensing and relaxation in many other areas made the

    atmosphere increasingly conducive for business. In 2002, after the framing of the new auto policy,

    government threw the sector open to 100 per cent Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) under the

    automatic route. Liberalisation has brought major international OEMs like Hyundai, General

    Motors, Ford, Toyota, Daimler Chrysler, Mitsubishi, Daewoo, Mercedes Benz, etc into India. This

    attracted international auto component majors like Lear Corporation, Delphi, Visteon, Mando, ZF

    Steering and Denso as well into our country. The entry of multi-national OEMs has also boosted the

    growth of indigenous auto component manufacturers, as these OEMs not only sourced major

    portion of the components for their Indian operations but also for their overseas operations from

    Indian suppliers. Besides expanding the size of the sector, entry of foreign firms has led to

    significant knowledge spill-over on Indian auto component firms.

    Barriers to entry: Medium

    The Automobile component industry is moderately capital intensive in nature. Replacement

    market, the bigger segment, is cost-conscious and not brand-conscious. These factors make the

    entry into the business easier. However, the industry is dependent on technology to some extent

    in relation to the product design and its technical know-how as intellectual properties, especially

    in engine-related components. The component manufacturers work closely with the OEM in

    designing the components. Players in the organised sector have an upper hand to be the

    preferred suppliers to OEMs. Thus, it is difficult for a new or a smaller player to make through

    the OEM segment.

    The 100 per cent FDI being allowed in the sector, corroborated with easy availability of low-

    cost labour and inputs like steel, aluminium and copper makes the entry easy for internationalplayers into the Indian market, primarily in the OEM segment where there is presence of

    international OEMs as well. But penetrating the replacement market is difficult for them, as this

    market requires large distribution network.

    Competition: Medium to High

    The industry is fragmented in nature and predominantly controlled by the unorganised sector.

    The organised segment accounts for only 30-35 per cent of the domestic sales. There are around

    600 units in the organised segment, while the unorganised segment has the presence of more

    than 6,000 units. Despite Indias auto component industry producing close to US$ 20 billion

    INDIAN AUTO COMPONENT INDUSTRY

    The range of products manufactured, with each broad product segment having a different market

    structure and technology has negated any possible concentration of the market in a few hands. The

    market is so large and diverse that a large number of players can be absorbed to accommodate buyer

    needs. However, there are a select few large companies that have integrated their operations across

    the value chain. The key to competing in this industry is through specialisation by product-type and

    integrating operations across the related area of specialization.Threat from substitutes: LowThere are no alternates or substitutes for the auto components. However, the industry faces

    competition from counterfeits and cheap Chinese imports, especially in cost-conscious replacement

    market. As per the industry, counterfeits account for around US$1 billion worth sales.

    The indirect threat to the industry can come from the probable increase in cargo and/or passenger

    movement by alternate modes like airlines or railways, which may impact demand for automobiles

    and thus the components. Furthermore, improvement in road infrastructure would also lead to lesser

    wear and tear and thus lower demand for components in the replacement segment.

    Bargaining power of buyers: High

    On account of fragmentation, the bargaining power of the component manufacturers is very

    low. The OEM segment on the other hand is consolidated, with top two players in each sub-

    segment accounting for at least more than 2/3rd

    of the production in each segment. Thus, the

    OEMs have an upper-hand over the component suppliers.

    In the replacement market, no single buyer dominates the industry and sales in this segment areakin to retail sales. However, this segment is very cost-conscious and thus, the bargaining

    power of the fragmented component industry is very weak. The export market is also very price

    sensitive, as India faces competition from other low-cost manufacturing centres like China,

    Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Hong Kong etc.

    Bargaining power of suppliers: High

    Ferrous and non-ferrous metals, crude oil derivatives and other commodities form inputs of auto

    component manufacturers. The auto component industry is not a very significant consumer of these

    commodities. Thus, the component manufacturers, either individually or collectively, do not

    prices are based on their global demand-supply balance and macro-economic cycles.

    Regulatory intervention: Low

    There is minimum regulatory intervention in the auto component industry. There are no special

    regulations or statutes framed for the industry. The overall business environment has been

    liberalised and made conducive for business over the years. The automobile sector holistically

    being an important sector to the economy is looked upon favourably by the Government,

    especially during the economic downturn. Stringent labour laws, though having a social

    importance, do not go well for this labour-intensive industry.

    Barriers to exit: Medium to low

    The barrier to exit for the sector is primarily in terms of labour. The process of retiring the

    existing labour force is a tedious process and involves high cots and legal compliances for terms

    like Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS), separation compensation, gratuity etc. However,

    there is no regulatory interference to exit. Since the industry is fragmented, the probability of

    assets or the entire business of the exiting firm being bought out is high.

    BUSINESS RISKS

    This chapter deals with important and unique business risks, on which the companies involved

    in the automotive component manufacturing and selling can be assessed and compared:

    Scale of operations

    The Indian auto component industry is fragmented in nature with more than 6,500 units

    producing around US$ 19 billion worth output. In this light, the scale of operation becomes very

    critical. The Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) prefer associating themselves with

    larger players for supply of components for vehicles they manufacture. Furthermore, the

    component manufacturer should also be able to scale up its operations in line with the growth of

    the OEM it is associated with. Larger scale of operations is also advantageous for the players in

    the highly-competitive replacement and export market. The scale of operations can be gauged

    by the market share of the player in the component(s) it manufactures and market it operates.

    Diversification

    Well-diversified market and customer mix is imperative for component manufacturer for

    minimizing risk of volatile sales and profits. The sales should be well diversified amongst OEM,

    replacement and export segments. Furthermore, the sales in OEM segment should be well

    diversified across various vehicle manufacturers and that in the export segment across geographies.

    Dependency on one/limited OEMs can ensure business, but also exposes the component

    manufacturer to the risk of its fortunes being linked to the performance and success of those OEMs.

    Thus, balance between sales in various segments like OEM, replacement and exports, wider

    customer base and diversification across geographies in case of exports is desirable.

    Performance of the OEM

    If the component manufacturer is more dependent on one or two OEMs, the market position of

    those OEMs and the potential threat to their market position needs to be considered. The future

    performance of such component manufacturers would largely depend on the performance of

    those OEMs. Furthermore, the expansion plans of the OEMs also need to be taken into account

    that help to understand the increase in potential orders.

    Parentage

    The component manufacturer being a part of an OEM group is viewed positively, as it provides

    ready access to parents business, technological skills and experience. Similarly, being a part of

  • 8/3/2019 Auto Ancillary Reports

    11/20

    INDIAN AUTO COMPONENT INDUSTRY

    Value addition and significance in value chain

    The business risk of component manufacturers can also be judged on the basis of value addition.

    Generally, the business with low value addition is not very capital and technology intensive andthus attract many smaller players leading to fragmentation and thus stiff competition. Higher the

    value addition, difficult it becomes for entering the business and consequently, less fragmented is

    the industry. Furthermore, position of the component manufacturer in the value chain is important to

    understand its significance in the value chain. Higher value addition and significant position in the

    value chain gives the company more bargaining power.

    Product complexityThe degree of complexity of the product determines the importance of the component

    manufacturer in the supply chain and thus impacts its bargaining power. The complexity can be

    measured by the extent of research and development efforts and expenses, precision involved,

    product validation etc. More complex the product, limited is the downside risk of price and

    profitability and difficult it is to enter the business.

    Technology and manufacturing processThe component manufacturers with strong in-house research and component development teams or

    faster access to technology through collaboration or tie-ups would be in a better position to secure

    orders from OEMs. Access to technology is the important criteria for vendor selection by the

    OEMs. The OEM also checks the quality management practices that are adopted by the auto

    ancillary units. Moreover, the OEM also ascertains as to whether the practices like six sigma, Just-

    in-time etc are practiced or do they have quality improvement methodologies such as Total

    Productivity Management (TPM), Total Quality Management (TQM), Zero Defects etc.

    DOMESTIC MARKET

    The domestic auto component market can be segmented into Original Equipment Manufacturer(OEM) segment and the replacement segment or the after-market. The auto components are not

    only used by the OEMs for rolling out new automobiles, but also by the existing automobile

    population for replacing the used and worn-out ones.

    Size of the domestic market

    The domestic auto component market is estimated at Rs.1,060 billion in 2009-10. The sales to the

    OEM segment are estimated at Rs.700 billion, whereas the sales in the after-market are estimated at

    Rs.360 billion. While the indigenous manufacturers catered Rs.740 billion worth domestic market,

    Rs.320 billion worth components were imported.

    Trend in domestic market size

    The domestic market for auto components increased from Rs.170 billion in 1999-00 to Rs.410

    billion in 2004-05 and further to Rs.1,060 billion in 2009-10. This implies a 5-year Compounded

    Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 20.9 per cent and 10-year CAGR of 20.1 per cent.

    On account of Indias low cost advantage, many international automobile manufacturers are

    either sourcing components from India or have set up their subsidiaries in India to produce

    components for their global operations. Higher exports by Indian subsidiaries of global Original

    Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier-I component manufacturers has been driving

    component exports from India. International players like Delphi, Visteon, FAG Bearings, and

    Timken India etc have increased their export revenues from Indian operations.

    In 1999-00, nearly 45-50 per cent of the exports catered the OEMs or the Tier I suppliers, while

    50-55 per cent of the exports catered the replacement market. Today, around 80 per cent of

    Indias component exports cater the OEMs or the Tier I suppliers, which demonstrates long-

    term relationships and repeat orders from these customers.

    Key products exported

    India primarily exports engine components (that include products such as pistons, piston rings,

    engine valves, carburetors, etc.) and drive transmission and steering components (that include

    products like gears, transmission shafts and cranks, steering systems, axles, clutches etc.). These

    two categories currently account for around 34 per cent and 19 per cent of component exports from

    India by value. Body and chassis, Suspension and braking components and Equipment each account

    for 11-12 per cent of component exports from India by value. Electric parts form around 8 per cent

    Some of the products that have witnessed healthy export growth include starter motors, axles,

    transmission cranks, shafts, generators and bumpers. The engine components are technology as

    well as capital intensive and thus are dominated by large players. Similarly in drive

    transmission and steering components, the steering systems are technology as well as capital

    intensive, which act as entry barrier for smaller unorganised players.

    IMPORTS

    India imports nearly one-third of the auto components it consumes in value terms. The share of

    imported consumption has drastically increased in the last decade. China has been aggressively

    exporting components to India.

    Size of imports

    India is estimated to have imported Rs.320 billion (US$ 7 billion) worth auto components in

    2009-10, as against domestic component consumption worth Rs.1,060 billion (US$ 22 billion).

    Thus, imports form around 30 per cent of the domestic component consumption in value terms.

    Trend in importsIndias auto component imports increased at a CAGR of 32.4 per cent from Rs.19 billion (US $

    0.4 billion) in 1999-00 to Rs.320 billion (US$ 7 billion) in 2009-10. The major components

    Key sources of imports

    India imports auto-component mainly from the European Union (EU), US, Japan, South Korea

    and China. EU is the key exporter of auto components to India, with 37 per cent of the

    components imported by India being sourced from that region. China, though accounting for a

    smaller share of 9 per cent, is emerging to be a bigger threat. Component imports from China

    increased at perturbing CAGR of 63.5 per cent from Rs.2 billion (US $ 47 million) in 2003-04 to

    Rs.25 billion (US$ 545 million) in 2008-09. Thus, Chinas share in Indian auto component

    imports increased to current level of 9 per cent from 3 per cent during the said period.

    According to the industry, the share of imports to domestic consumption is likely to increase further

    on account of reduction of customs duty on several auto parts under Free Trade Agreements (FTAs)

    with the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) and South Korea. Custom duty on auto

    parts like pistons, rings, bumpers, gear boxes and radiators would be brought down to zero by 2013

    under the Indo-ASEAN FTA. Similarly, custom duty on motorcycle and engine parts would alsocome down under the India-South Korea FTA. Under the FTA with Thailand, there is already zero

    duty on certain components imported from that country, which include engine parts, lighting

    equipment, ball bearings, gear boxes/transmissions, pumps and helical springs. India is also

    negotiating market opening pacts with the European Union and Japan.

    Prospects :

    In the long term, the growth of this sector will depend partly on pace of indigenisationlevels across all segments. The prospects look bright as most companies are increasing

    the indigenous components, in an effort to reduce their currency losses and remain

    competitive. Also, the fact that auto manufacturers like Ford, Hyundai and Maruti are

    exporting cars, make the prospects look encouraging.
