INDUSTRIAL MARKETS CHEMICAL & PHARMACEUTICAL The chemical industry is characterized by sluggish growth and relatively low international and local demand in the traditional areas of bulk / commodity chemical products. These are typically large volume commodity products produced in capital intensive plants, sold to industrial and processing customers and distinguished by a very high degree of price. The pharmaceutical industry is poised for substantial growth with large-scale consolidation being the hallmark of companies in this sector. Companies globally are either merging to form mega companies with unmatched product portfolios or else entering into strategic and marketing tie ups With others in the same or even different product categories.
INDUSTRIAL MARKETS ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES A rapidly increasing population, and growing urbanisation has put immense pressure on energy and natural resources in India as traditional sources of energy such as fossil fuel reserves are rapidly depleting. Alternatives to traditional fossil fuels are vital to help the country avert an impending energy crisis. Natural gas is a growing alternative to coal and all out efforts should be made to harness this valuable resource and set up infrastructure for the supply and distribution of natural gas as a substitute to coal. Increasing pollution in large urban metros has also resulted in demand for alternatives like CNG and ultra low sulphur diesel with low particulate emission to ensure relatively low emission as per internationally accepted norms.
INDUSTRIAL MARKETS SUB SEGMENTS IN THE SECTOR: • Crude oil and natural gas • Coal and lignite • Forestry and timber • Oil and gas • Precious metals
INDUSTRIAL MARKETS INDUSTRIAL AND AUTOMOTIVE SECTOR The industrial sector is characterized by relatively low investment demand and overcapacity. It is inextricably linked to the infrastructure projects being set up in the country. As a result the fortunes of companies in this sector are directly linked to the general state of economy, with a less than modest rate of economic growth resulting in a downward spiral in growth and profitability.
