1.1.1
Market size
According to IMF World Economic Outlook April, 2015, India ranks seventh
globally in terms of GDP at current prices and is expected to grow at 7.5 per
cent in 2016.
India’s economy has witnessed a significant economic growth in the recent
past, growing by 7.3 per cent in FY2015 as against 6.9 per cent in FY2014.
The size of the Indian economy is estimated to be at Rs 129.57 trillion (US$
2.01 trillion) for the year 2014 compared to Rs 118.23 trillion (US$ 1.84
trillion) in 2013.
The steps taken by the government in recent times have shown positive
results as India's gross domestic product (GDP) at factor cost at constant
(2011-12) prices 2014-15 is Rs 106.4 trillion (US$ 1.596 trillion), as against
Rs 99.21 trillion (US$ 1.488 trillion) in 2013-14, registering a growth rate of
7.3 per cent. The economic activities which witnessed significant growth
were ‘financing, insurance, real estate and business services’ at 11.5 per
cent and ‘trade, hotels, transport, communication services’ at 10.7 per cent.
According to a Goldman Sachs report released in September 2015, India
could grow at a potential 8 per cent on average during from fiscal 2016 to
2020
powered
by
greater
access
to
banking,

KPMC Annual Report-2015
1.1.2
Investments/Developments
With the improvement in the economic scenario, there have been various
investments leading to increased M&A activity. Some of them are as follows:
India has emerged as one of the strongest performers with respect to deals
across the world in terms of mergers and acquisitions (M&A). M&A activity
increased in 2014 with deals worth US$ 38.1 billion being concluded,
compared to US$ 28.2 billion in 2013 and US$ 35.4 billion in 2012. The total
transaction value for the month of July 2015 was US$ 6.7 billion involving a
total of 156 transactions, which were higher in terms of volume (47 per
cent) and value (17 per cent) compared with the same period last year. In
the M&A space, Energy and natural resources was the dominant sector,
amounting to 38 per cent of the total transaction value. Also, Private equity
(PE) investments increased 16 per cent y-o-y to US$ 2.2 billion, marking the
highest activity in 2015.
India’s Index of Industrial Production (IIP) grew by 4.2 per cent in July 2015
compared to 3.8 per cent in June 2015. The growth was largely due to the
boost in Electricity sector growth, which was 3.5 per cent in July compared
to 1.3 per cent in the previous month.
India’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rate eased to 3.66 per cent in
August 2015 compared to 3.69 per cent in the previous month. On the other
hand, the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) inflation rate remained negative at
Page 8
KPMC Annual Report-2015
4.95 per cent for the tenth consecutive month in August 2015 as against
negative 4.05 per cent in the previous month, led by low crude oil prices.
India's consumer confidence continues to remain highest globally for the fifth
quarter in a row, riding on positive economic environment and lower
inflation. According to Nielsen’s findings, India’s consumer confidence score
in the second quarter of 2015 increased by one point from the previous
quarter (Q1 of 2015). With a score of 131 in the second quarter (2015),
India's consumer confidence score is up by three points from the
corresponding period of the previous year (Q2 of 2014) when it stood at
128.
India’s current account deficit reduced sharply to US$ 1.3 billion (0.2 per
cent of GDP) in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to US$ 8.3 billion (1.6
per cent of GDP) in the previous quarter, indicating a shrink in the current
account deficit by 84.3 per cent quarter-on-quarter basis.
India's foreign exchange reserve stood at a high of US$ 352 billion in the
week up to September 18, 2015 – indicating an increase of US$ 631.5
million compared to previous week.
Owing to increased investor confidence, net Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)
inflows touched a record high of US$ 34.9 billion in 2015 compared to US$
21.6 billion in the previous fiscal year, according to a Nomura report. The
Page 9
KPMC Annual Report-2015
report indicated that the net FDI inflows reached to 1.7 per cent of the GDP
in 2015 from 1.1 per cent in the previous fiscal year.
1.1.3
Government Initiatives
Numerous foreign companies are setting up their facilities in India on
account of various government initiatives like Make in India and Digital
India. Mr. Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India, has launched the Make in
India initiative with an aim to boost the manufacturing sector of Indian
economy. This initiative is expected to increase the purchasing power of an
average Indian consumer, which would further boost demand, and hence
spur
development,
in
addition
to
benefiting
investors.
Besides,
the
Government has also come up with Digital India initiative, which focuses on
three core components: creation of digital infrastructure, delivering services
digitally and to increase the digital literacy. Finance Minister Mr Arun Jaitley
stated that the government is looking at a number of reforms and resolution
of pending tax disputes to attract investments.
Currently, the manufacturing sector in India contributes over 15 per cent of
the GDP. The Government of India, under the Make in India initiative, is
trying to give boost to the contribution made by the manufacturing sector
and aims to take it up to 25 per cent of the GDP. Following the government’s
initiatives several plans for investment have been undertaken which are as

1.1.4
Road Ahead
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Moody’s Investors Service
have forecasted that India will witness a GDP growth rate of 7.5 per cent in
2016, due to improved investor confidence, lower food prices and better
policy reforms. Besides, according to mid-year update of United Nations
World Economic Situation and Prospects, India is expected to grow at 7.6
per cent in 2015 and at 7.7 per cent in 2016.
Page 12
KPMC Annual Report-2015
As per the latest Global Economic Prospects (GEP) report by World Bank,
India is leading The World Bank’s growth chart for major economies. The
Bank believes India to become the fastest growing major economy by 2015,
growing at 7.5 per cent.
According to Minister of State for Finance, Indian economy would continue to
grow at 7 to 9 per cent and would double in size to US$ 4–5 trillion in a

1.2.4
Government Initiatives
`Make in India' campaign has received the attention of several infrastructure
and engineering multi nationals including GE and ThyssenKrupp, which are
considering investing in the country. The Government has also awarded a
record 56 defence manufacturing permits to private sector entities like
Mahindra, Tata and Pipavav, etc., in the past year to set up production units
for major military equipment.
The Indian engineering sector is of strategic importance to the economy
owing to its intense integration with other industry segments. The sector has
been de-licensed and enjoys 100 per cent FDI. With the aim to boost the
manufacturing sector, the government has relaxed the excise duties on
factory gate tax, capital goods, consumer durables and vehicles. It has also
reduced the basic customs duty from 10 per cent to 5 per cent on forged
steel rings used in the manufacture of bearings of wind operated electricity
generators.
Page 19
KPMC Annual Report-2015
The Government of India in its Union Budget 2014-15, has provided
investment allowance at the rate of 15 per cent to a manufacturing company
that invests more than US$ 4.17 million in any year in new plant and
machinery. The government has also taken steps to improve the quality of
technical education in the engineering sector by allocating a sum of Rs 500
crore (US$ 75.33 million) for setting up five more IITs in the states of
Jammu, Chhattisgarh, Goa, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala.
Steps have also been taken to encourage companies to perform and grow
better. For instance, EIL was recently conferred the Navaratna status after it
fulfilled the criteria set by the Department of Public Enterprises, Ministry of
Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, Government of India. The conferred
status would give the state-owned firm more financial and operational
autonomy.
Government of India has also taken initiatives to provide a level playing field
to domestic and foreign private players bidding for the government contracts
in defence sector. The government has withdrawn excise and customs duty
exemptions granted to goods manufactured and supplied to the defence
ministry by state-owned defence firms. These steps will also encourage
participation of foreign Original Equipment Manufacturers such as Boeing,
Airbus, Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, etc., in the sector.
Page 20
KPMC Annual Report-2015
1.2.5
Road Ahead
The engineering sector is a growing market. Spending on engineering
services is projected to increase to US$ 1.1 trillion by 2020. With
development in associated sectors such as automotive, industrial goods and
infrastructure, coupled with a well-developed technical human resources
pool, engineering exports are expected to touch US$ 120 billion by 2015.
Also,
the
Union

KPMC Annual Report-2015
1.3 Oil & Gas
1.3.1
Introduction
The oil and gas sector is among the six core industries in India and plays a
major role in influencing decision making for all the other important sections
of the economy.
In 1997–98, the New Exploration Licensing Policy (NELP) was envisaged to
fill the ever-increasing gap between India’s gas demand and supply. A
recent report points out that the Indian oil and gas industry is anticipated to
be worth US$ 139.8 billion by 2015. India’s economic growth is closely
related to energy demand; therefore the need for oil and gas is projected to
grow more, thereby making the sector quite conducive for investment.
Page 22
KPMC Annual Report-2015
The Government of India has adopted several policies to fulfill the increasing
demand.
The
government
has
allowed
100
per
cent
foreign
direct
investment (FDI) in many segments of the sector, including natural gas,
petroleum products, and refineries, among others. Today, it attracts both
domestic and foreign investment, as attested by the presence of Reliance
Industries Ltd (RIL) and Cairn India.
1.3.2
Market Size
Backed by new oil fields, domestic oil output is anticipated to grow to 1
MBPD by FY16. With India developing gas-fired power stations, consumption
is up more than 160 per cent since 1995. Gas consumption is likely to
expand at a CAGR of 21 per cent during FY08–17. Presently, domestic
production accounts for more than three-quarters of the country’s total gas
consumption.
Page 23
KPMC Annual Report-2015
India increasingly relies on imported LNG; the country was the fifth-largest
LNG importer in 2013, accounting for 5.5 per cent of global imports. India’s
LNG imports are forecasted to increase at a CAGR of 33 per cent during
2012–17. However, net imports of Natural Gas fell from 13.14 BCM in 201213 to 13.03 BCM in 2013-14.
State-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) dominates the
upstream
segment
(exploration
and
production),
accounting
for
approximately 68 per cent of the country’s total oil output (FY14).
Page 24
KPMC Annual Report-2015
Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) operates 11,214 km network of crude,
gas and product pipelines, with a capacity of 1.6 MBPD of oil and 10 million
metric standard cubic metre per day (MMSCMD) of gas. This is around 30
per cent of the nation’s total pipeline network. IOCL is the largest company,
operating 10 out of 22 Indian refineries, with a combined capacity of 1.3
MBPD.
1.3.3
Investment
According to data released by the Department of Industrial Policy and

The Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), Ministry of
Commerce and Industry, reported that the Indian ports sector received FDI
worth US$ 1,637.3 million between April 2000 and May 2015. The ports
sector was also awarded 30 projects in FY14, investing over Rs 20,000 crore
(US$ 3.16 billion), which is a threefold increase over the preceding year.
1.8.3
Investments/Developments
The Indian Minister for Shipping, Road Transport and Highways, Mr Nitin
Gadkari, announced a massive investment in India’s ports and roads sector,
which is likely to help boost the country’s economy. The Indian government
plans to develop 10 coastal economic regions as part of plans to revive the
country’s Sagarmala (string of ports) project.
Page 58
KPMC Annual Report-2015
The zones would be converted into manufacturing hubs, supported by port
modernisation projects, and could span 300–500 km of the coastline. The
government is also looking to develop the inland waterway sector as an
alternative to road and rail routes to transport goods to the nation’s ports
and hopes to attract private investment in the sector.
Jindal ITF plans to invest nearly Rs 500 crore (US$ 79.1 million) to further
transloading operations in Haldia. The company, which already transports
imported coal in barges to NTPC's power plants in Farakka and Kahalgaon
from the Sandheads, plans to transload cargo at the deep-drafted location at
Kanika Sands and transport it to Haldia.
The state-run Shipping Corporation of India Ltd (SCI) is expected to
purchase five vessels from the state-owned Cochin Shipyard Ltd. It is also
likely to issue tenders to buy two used liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) carriers
as it looks to re-start ship purchases that were frozen after poor financial
performance.
Maharashtra’s Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) plans to build a satellite
port at Wadhwan near Dahanu (bordering Gujarat), which is estimated to
cost Rs 10,000 crore (US$ 1.56 billion) to build and likely to ease the
congestion of ships at JNPT.

1.8.4
Government Initiatives
While unveiling plans worth Rs 10 trillion (US$ 158.2 billion) in the highway
and shipping sectors by 2019.
The Union Minister stated that the Government of India has set an ambitious
target to convert 101 rivers across the country into waterways to promote
water transport and propel economic growth.
The government is considering a proposal to set up an Integrated National
Waterways Transport Grid (INWTG), which covers primarily five national
waterways. The INWTG plan involves the development of these national
waterways with at least 2.5 metres of least available depth (LAD),
upgrade/setting
up of priority terminals, and establishment of road
connectivity (wherever feasible) and rail and port connectivity.
The Government is undertaking the following measures for the ports’
capacity expansion:
⃝ Up to 100 per cent FDI would be allowed under the automatic route for
port development projects.
⃝ Income tax incentives would be allowed as per the Income Tax Act, 1961.
⃝ Bidding documents such as RFQ, RFP and Concession Agreement have
been standardised.
Page 60
KPMC Annual Report-2015
⃝ The Shipping Ministry’s power to delegate finances has been enhanced to
accord investment approval for PPP projects.
⃝Security clearance procedures have been streamlined.
⃝ The major ports’ developmental projects are being closely monitored.
The Ministry of Shipping has formulated a Perspective Plan ‘The Maritime
Agenda 2010–2020’ to develop the maritime sector. This Plan includes
forecasts for traffic and capacity additions at the ports up to 2020. The
estimated capacity of the ports would be 3,130 MMT by 2019–20.
The Union Ministry of Shipping has chalked out a comprehensive plan to
raise Rs 100,000 crore (US$ 15.6 billion) to develop ports, build ships and
improve inland waterways in the country.
1.8.5
Road ahead
Increasing investments and cargo traffic point towards a healthy outlook for
the Indian ports sector. Providers of services such as operation and
maintenance (O&M), pilotage and harbouring and marine assets such as
barges and dredgers are benefiting from these investments.
The Planning Commission of India forecasts an investment of Rs 180,626
crore (US$ 28.6 billion) for this industry in its 12th Five Year Plan. In
addition, through The Maritime Agenda 2010–2020, the Ministry of Shipping
Page 61
KPMC Annual Report-2015
has set a target capacity of over 3,130 MMT by 2020, which would be driven
by participation from the private sector. Non-major ports are expected to
generate over 50 per cent of this capacity.

1.9 Textile Machinery
1.9.1
Introduction
The textile machinery manufacturing section is one of the largest segments
of the machinery manufacturing industry in India. This industry is nearly
sixty
years
old
and
has
about
1000
machinery
and
component
manufacturing units. Nearly 300 units produce complete machinery and the
remaining produces various textile machinery components. The total
investment in this industry is around 2000 Crores. However, not all the units
work to full capacity or even the optimum capacity level. Except for the units
in the spinning sector where the machineries are of international standards;
in the other sectors, machinery manufacturing for weaving, knitting and
wet-processing lack standard of quality and performance (in most of the
cases) to compete with the European manufacturers. In the weaving sector,
shuttle-less weaving machinery (rapier or jet) and in the knitting sector
Page 63
KPMC Annual Report-2015
(circular knitting and flat knitting) machineries hardly have any presence in
the industry.
The machinery manufacturing operation takes place both in the organised
and the unorganised sectors. In the organised sector, in addition to the
public limited companies, machinery manufacturing is done in independent
units, which have collaborative joint ventures with the foreign entities. In the
decentralized sector, there are small-scale industrial units as well as tiny
units engaged in the production of accessories pertaining to the textile
machinery.
Textile Engineering Goods Industry classified as follows:
lied machines
Page 64
KPMC Annual Report-2015
1.9.2
Growth Drivers
Purchase of new machinery is the key growth driver of the market. One of
the major growth drivers for global machinery market is the strong economic
recovery; postrecession, increasing demand for textile products, and
environmentally friendly fibers, and a growing demand for the developing
nations. Today machinery manufacturers produce textile machineries at
competitive prices, and sophisticated machines of higher speed, and
production capacity. Presence of numerous small scale players also makes
the machinery sector more competitive. Along with them, MNCs have also
entered the global arena, taking the competition to the next level, driving
companies to work on their productivity and innovation.
The global demand of textile machinery is rising due to growing demand of
textile industry. Today, Textile machinery sourcing is majorly done from
European countries, which is relatively costly. India is strategically located
from most of major textile & apparel producing countries and India has good
potential to explore global opportunities & tap global market. India has to
Page 65
KPMC Annual Report-2015
first focus on exports to the neighboring countries which are emerging as
significant textile producers.
1.9.3
Capacity Utilization
Most of the textile machinery manufacturing units are under utilization. Not
all the textile machinery manufacturing units in India work to full capacity or
even the optimum capacity level.
Page 66
KPMC Annual Report-2015
1.9.4
Exports and Imports
Indian imports for textile machinery parts and accessories are growing at a
CAGR of 25% in last few years, whereas exports are very low as compare to
imports, but it is also showing increasing trend and it is increasing at a CAGR
of 36%.
1.9.5
Domestic Consumption
Domestic demand for textile machinery is increasing at a CAGR of 17% over
the year.
The demand is increasing; but demand met by indigenous manufacturer is
not even half of the total demand.
Page 67
KPMC Annual Report-2015
The major problem in the textile machinery manufacturing industry is the
lack
of
investment
in
Research
and
Development,
except
for
the
manufacturing units who have technical collaboration with reputed foreign
companies; no progress has been made in the quality of the machinery
produced. This dependence on borrowed technology and want of research
has kept most of the sectors except spinning machinery sector far behind in
the standard and performance of the machinery produced. This has resulted
in the import of second hand machinery especially in the area of weaving
thus discouraging the advancement of technology in the manufacturing of
similar machinery in India. Lack of systematic fiscal support to the industry
by the Government has also added to the problems.

Rs 200 crore (US$ 30.10 million) in Alliance group, a real estate company.
The consortium of institutions has invested in the holding company of
Alliance group, Alliance Infrastructure Projects Private Limited.
1.10.4 Government Initiatives
The Government of India is taking every possible initiative to boost the
infrastructure sector. Some of the steps taken in the recent past are being
discussed hereafter.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has notified 100 per cent foreign direct
investment (FDI) under automatic route in the construction development
sector. The new limit came into effect in December 2014.
The Government of India has relaxed rules for FDI in the construction sector
by reducing minimum built-up area as well as capital requirement. It has
also liberalised the exit norms. In fact, the Cabinet has also approved the
proposal to amend the FDI policy.
In the Budget 2015-16, the capital outlays for roads, and railways have been
increased by Rs 140.3 billion (US$ 2.11 billion) and Rs 100.5 billion (US$
1.51 billion) respectively.
India and the US have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in
order to establish Infrastructure Collaboration Platform. The document
Page 73

showcases the relationship between both the Governments which intend to
facilitate US industry participation in Indian infrastructure projects to
improve the bilateral relationship and benefit both economies. The MoU’s
scope envisages efforts in the areas of Urban Development, Commerce and
Industry, Railways, Road Transport and Highways, Micro Small and Medium
Enterprises, Power, New & Renewable Energy, among others.
1.10.5 Road Ahead
Indian port sector is poised to mark great progress in the years to come. It
is forecasted that by the end of 2017 port traffic will amount to 943.06 MT
for India’s major ports and 815.20 MT for its minor ports.
Along with that, Indian aviation market is expected to become the third
largest across the globe by 2020, according to industry estimates. The
sector is projected to handle 336 million domestic and 85 million
international passengers with projected investment to the tune of US$ 120
billion. Indian Aviation Industry, which currently accounts for 1.5 per cent of
the gross domestic product (GDP), has been instrumental in the overall
economic development of the country. Given the huge gap between potential
and current air travel penetration in India, the prospects and possibilities of
growth of Indian aviation market are enormous.

1.11 Food Processing Machinery
1.11.1 Introduction
The Indian food industry is poised for huge growth, increasing its
contribution to world food trade every year. In India, the food sector has
emerged as a high-growth and high-profit sector due to its immense
potential for value addition, particularly within the food processing industry.
Accounting for about 32 per cent of the country’s total food market, the food
processing industry is one of the largest industries in India and is ranked
fifth in terms of production, consumption, export and expected growth. The
total food production in India is likely to double in the next 10 years with the
country’s domestic food market estimated to reach US$ 258 billion by 2015.
Page 75
KPMC Annual Report-2015
The Government of India has been instrumental in the growth and
development of the food processing industry. The government through the
Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI) is making all efforts to
encourage investments in the business. It has approved proposals for joint
ventures (JV), foreign collaborations, industrial licences and 100 per cent
export oriented units.
1.11.2 Market Size
The Indian food and grocery market is the world’s sixth largest, with retail
contributing 70 per cent of the sales. It is projected to grow at the rate of
104 per cent, touching US$ 482 billion by 2020.
The Indian food processing industry accounts for 32 per cent of the country’s
total food market, 14 per cent of manufacturing GDP, 13 per cent of India’s
exports and six per cent of total industrial investment. Indian food service
industry is expected to reach US$ 78 billion by 2018.The Indian gourmet
Page 76
KPMC Annual Report-2015
food market is currently valued at US$ 1.3 billion and is growing at a CAGR
of 20 per cent. It is expected to cross US$ 2.8 billion by 2015.
The online food ordering business in India is in its nascent stage, but
witnessing exponential growth. The organised food business in India is worth
US$ 48 billion, of which food delivery is valued at US$ 15 billion. With online
food delivery players like FoodPanda, Zomato, TinyOwl and Swiggy building
scale through partnerships, the organised food business has a huge potential
and a promising future.
1.11.3 Investments
According to the data provided by the Department of Industrial Policies and
Promotion (DIPP), the food processing sector in India has received around
US$ 6,429.15 million worth of foreign investments during the period April
2000—June 2015. The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) estimates that
the food processing sectors have the potential to attract as much as US$ 33
Page 77
KPMC Annual Report-2015
billion of investment over the next 10 years and also generate employment
of nine million person-days.
1.11.4 Government Initiatives
In order to promote food processing industries, increase level of processing
and exploit the potential of domestic and international market for processed
food products, Vision Document-2015 was prepared by the Ministry of Food
Processing
Industries.
The
document
envisages
trebling
the
size
of
investment in the processed food sector by increasing the level of processing
of perishables from 6 per cent to 20 per cent, value addition from 20 per
cent to 35 per cent and share in global food trade from 1.5 per cent to 3 per
cent by 2015. According to the Ministry, an investment of Rs 100,000 crore
(US$ 16 billion) would be required in 2015 to achieve these targets.
The Ministry of Food Processing Industries has taken some new initiatives to
develop the food processing sector which will also help to enhance the
incomes of farmers and export of agro and processed foods among others.
Page 78
KPMC Annual Report-2015
In the Budget 2015-16, a corpus of Rs. 2,000 crore (US$ 301.27 million)
was created under National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development
(NABARD) to provide cheaper credit to food processing industry. Excise duty
on plant and machinery for packaging and processing has been brought
down to six per cent from 10 per cent.
1.11.5 Road Ahead
Going
forward,
the
adoption
of
food
safety
and
quality
assurance
mechanisms such as Total Quality Management (TQM) including ISO 9000,
ISO 22000, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), Good
Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Good Hygienic Practices (GHP) by the
food processing industry offers several benefits. It would enable adherence
to stringent quality and hygiene norms and thereby protect consumer
health, prepare the industry to face global competition, enhance product
acceptance by overseas buyers and keep the industry technologically
abreast of international best practices.

1.12 Petrochemical Industry
1.12.1 Introduction
The chemical industry is a knowledge intensive as well as capital intensive
industry. It is an integral constituent of the growing Indian Industry. It
includes basic chemicals and its products, petrochemicals, fertilizers, paints,
varnishes, gases, soaps, perfumes and toiletry and pharmaceuticals. The
diversification within the chemical industry is large and covers more than
eighty thousand commercial products.
Page 80
KPMC Annual Report-2015
This Industry occupies a pivotal position in meeting basic needs and
improving quality of life. The industry is the main stay of industrial and
agricultural development of the country and provides building blocks for
several downstream industries, such as textiles, papers, paints, soaps,
detergents, pharmaceuticals, varnish etc.
1.12.2 Production Trends
Petrochemicals, which comprise of plastic and host of other chemicals, are
downstream hydrocarbons derived from crude oil and natural gas. The value
additions in the petrochemicals chain offer immense possibilities and cater to
the need of textiles and clothing, agriculture, packaging, infrastructure,
healthcare,
furniture,
automobiles,
information
technology,
power,
electronics and telecommunication, irrigation, drinking water, construction
and a host of other articles of daily and specialized usage amidst other
emerging areas.
Page 81
KPMC Annual Report-2015
Three new petrochemical products have been included in the coverage of the
products that are monitored by the Department. These new products are
Polyester chips or PET chips, Polytetrafluoroethylene (covered under the
group Performance Plastics and Polyol (Other-Petro based Chemicals). The
production data of these new products have been collected on the basis of
information supplied by the CSO. From Table II, it may be seen that the
production of polymers account for around 60% of the total production of
basic major petrochemicals.
The chemical industry in India is a key constituent of Indian economy,
accounting for about 2.11 per cent of the gross domestic product (GDP). In
terms of volume of production, Indian chemical industry is the third largest
producer in Asia and sixth largest in the world.
Indian chemical industry generated business worth US$ 118 billion in 2014.
Bulk chemicals account for 39 per cent of the Indian chemical industry,
followed by agrochemicals (20.3 per cent) and specialty chemicals (19.5 per
Page 82
KPMC Annual Report-2015
cent). Pharmaceuticals and biotechnology accounted for the remaining
share.
India’s growing per capita consumption and demand for agriculture-related
chemicals offers huge scope of growth for the sector in the future. Lured by
the size and returns of the Indian market, foreign firms have strengthened
their presence in India. From April 2000 to May 2015, total foreign direct
investment (FDI) inflows into the Indian chemicals industry (excluding
fertilisers) were US$ 10.49 billion.
1.12.3 Government Initiatives
The Government of India has been supportive to the sector. 100 per cent
FDI is permissible in the Indian chemicals sector while manufacturing of
most chemical products is de-licensed. The government has also been
encouraging Research and Development (R&D) in the sector. Moreover, the
government is continuously reducing the list of reserved chemical items for
production in the small-scale sector, thereby facilitating greater investment
in technology up-gradation and modernisation.
The Government has launched the Draft National Chemical Policy, which
aims to increase chemical sector’s share in country’s GDP.

1.13 Renewable Energy
1.13.1 Overview
In more ways than one, 2014-15 has been a decisive leap forward for
renewable energy in India. In his inaugural address to the 1st Renewable
Energy Global Investor Meet & Expo (RE-INVEST 2015) organized by the
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) during 15-17 February,
2015, Shri Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India, has articulated the future
of renewable as “Moving from megawatt to gigawatt”. Many investors and
stakeholders have evinced their interest to the sector by making their
commitments of over 266 GW, in the solar energy, wind energy, small hydro
and bio energy sectors. The RE-INVEST has laid a strong foundation for the
penetration of renewable energy in India in the coming years.
1.13.2 Indian Renewable Energy Scenario
Over the years, renewable energy sector in India has emerged as a
significant player in the grid connected power generation capacity. It
supports the government agenda of sustainable growth, while, emerging as
Page 84
KPMC Annual Report-2015
an integral part of the solution to meet the nation’s energy needs and an
essential player for energy access.
At present around 60 per cent of India’s power generation capacity is based
on coal. Net coal import dependency has risen from a negligible percentage
in 1990 to nearly 23 per cent in 2014. This, in addition to India’s increasing
dependence on imported oil, is leading to imports of around 28 per cent of
India’s total energy needs Despite increase in installed capacity by more
than 110 times in 62 years, India is still not in a position to meet its peak
electricity demand as well as energy requirement. The peak power deficit
during financial year 2001-02 was 12.2 per cent, approximately 9252 MW,
however, at the end of Financial Year 2013-14, the peak power deficit
decreased to the order of 4.5 per cent and in absolute terms peak deficit
was at 6103 MW.
1.13.3 Renewable Power Installed Capacity
As of December 2014, solar, wind, biomass and small hydropower contribute
about 13 per cent of the total installed capacity for electricity. The total
Page 85
KPMC Annual Report-2015
installed capacity touched the figure of 33,791 MW with wind power
contributing 22,465 MW, Solar 3,062 MW, Bio energy 4,272 and Small hydro
3,990 MW.
1.13.4 Renewable Energy Potential
India has an estimated renewable energy potential of about 900 GW from
commercially exploitable sources viz. Wind – 100 GW (at 80 metre mast
height); Small Hydro – 20 GW; Bio-energy – 25 GW; and 750 GW solar
power, assuming 3% wasteland is made available.
1.13.5 Power from Renewable
The gross installed capacity of grid interactive renewable power in the
country stood at about 33.8 GW as on 31st December 2014. India occupies
the fifth position in the world with a wind power installed capacity of 22.5
GW. During the year, 1,333 MW wind power projects were commissioned.
The generation from wind power projects during the year was around 30
billion units.

2 SOUTH AFRICA
2.1 Economy Update
Annual growth in GDP fell to 1.5% in 2014, but is expected to rebound to
2.0% in 2015, as the large rand depreciation may stimulate an export-led
recovery and the global economy gradually improves.
The macroeconomic policy framework is expected to remain unchanged, as
the governing African National Congress (ANC) won 62% of the vote in the
country’s fifth national elections held in May 2014.
South Africa has designed significant policies of spatial development at the
local, regional
and
improvements
in
national
service
levels,
delivery
including
and
development
decentralisation
corridors,
policies;
but
implementation has been slow and unequal across regions.
Page 88
KPMC Annual Report-2015
2.1.1
Overview
In 2014 South Africa’s growth continued to slow down, recording only 1.5%,
the weakest performance since the global financial crisis. The nation’s
economy was affected by its most protracted industrial action since the end
of apartheid and significantly weak demand from trading partners. Various
infrastructure gaps, notably inadequate energy supply, weak domestic
demand, and anaemic investment rates also acted as a drag on growth.
Nevertheless, projections based on improvements in the global economy,
the successful completion of major government projects (including the edupi
power station), and new investment plans, suggest that growth could
rebound to 2.0% in 2015. As one of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China
and South Africa) the country is well integrated into the global economy. The
strong labour unrest marked a crack in the tripartite alliance between the
ANC, the South African Communist Party (SACP) and the Congress of South
Africa Trade Unions (COSATU).
Page 89
KPMC Annual Report-2015
South Africa’s fiscal position improved with the deficit falling to 3.4% of
gross domestic product (GDP), thanks to increased tax revenues, which
helped offset increasing government expenditure. High wage demands by
public sector unions in 2015 could pose a fiscal risk. The new administration
announced a number of measures to consolidate the budget and reduce the
growth of expenditure to a real rate of 1.3% over the next two years, mainly
by freezing government personnel expenditure and reducing non-essential
spending.
2.1.2
Recent Development & Prospectus
The drop in real GDP growth in 2014 reflected a recent downward trend with
GDP growth declining from 3.2% in 2011, to 2.2% in 2012 and 2.2 % in
2013. Slow growth reflected continued feebleness in South Africa’s main
trading partners, in particular the European Union and China, as well as
structural weaknesses, such as labour market rigidities, skills shortages and
infrastructure gaps. The performance of the manufacturing sector was
worsened by strong labour unrest; labour costs that were higher than
productivity increases; a volatile rand within a 9.1% band during the first
three quarters of 2014; and severe energy bottlenecks.
Growth had a positive, though marginal, effect on job creation in 2014. In
recent years, however, it has not created sufficient jobs to match the supply
of low-skilled labour The manufacturing sector, in particular, saw its share in
GDP decline and capital intensity levels rise. Unemployment, at 25% in the
Page 90
KPMC Annual Report-2015
third quarter of 2014, remains the most pressing social and economic
challenge. Youth unemployment remained extremely high at 51% in that
quarter, up from 50% during the same period in 2013. Unemployment has a
racial dimension, reflecting South Africa’s unequal educational background
and historical legacy, and disproportionately affects “Black African” and
“Coloured” population groups at 29% and 24% respectively, compared to
“Asian/Indian” and “White” population groups at 12% and 7% respectively.
2.2 Energy Sector
2.2.1 Overview
- South African Electricity generation is dominated by ESKOM which is state owned
power company.
-ESKOM has presently produces 96.7% of the power consumed in country.
-ESKOM has currently 45,000 MW installed capacity.
-South Africa require at least 40,000 MW new generation capacity by 2025.

3 SRI LANKA
3.1 Economy Update
Sri Lanka’s economy grew by 4.4% in the first quarter of 2015 and 6.7% in
the second quarter (base year 2010). Of note, however, is the fact that
changes to national accounting required that Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
growth projections be revised.
Construction, which had driven growth for the previous 5 years, declined
markedly in the first half of the year from the period a year earlier.
Offsetting this in part, robust spending in consumption-related sectors such
as wholesale and retail trade sustained relatively strong growth.
Page 94
KPMC Annual Report-2015
Inflation slowed markedly, and Sri Lanka experienced deflation in July and
August, with the consumer price index recording each month a 0.2%
contraction year on year. Food inflation that was 12.0% in December 2014
fell to 2.5% in August, and the nonfood component has been deflationary
since the last quarter of 2014, largely due to lower administered fuel prices.
Exports fell by 0.6% over the first half of 2015 from the same period last
year, rather than improving as expected in ADO 2015, while imports grew by
5.7%, higher than expected. Export performance was affected by declining
exports of textiles and garments to the European Union, a ban on seafood
exports to that market from January 2015, and poor performance in tea
production. Rapid import growth was driven mainly by goods for consumers
and investment (in particular transport equipment now with a lowered
tariff), despite a marked decline in fuel imports from lower global oil prices.
Remittances expanded marginally by 2.2%, while earnings from tourism
Page 95
KPMC Annual Report-2015
grew by 14.0%. Reflecting weakening in the current and financial accounts,
the overall balance recorded a deficit of $792 million, and gross official
reserves fell at the end of June to $7.5 billion, which is cover for 4.5 months
of imports.
3.2 Power/Energy Sector
Sri Lanka is on the path towards becoming an internationally competitive
middle-income country. This power and energy sector development plan is
aligned to the country’s development drive, and has been prepared to
provide affordable, high quality and reliable energy for all citizens, rich or
poor, equally by conserving country’s precious natural environment, giving
priority to the indigenous energy sources, and minimizing regional disparities
in energy service delivery. The power and energy sector vision is to capture
the full potential of all renewable and other indigenous resources in order for
Sri Lanka to become a nation self-sufficient in energy.
The total energy requirement of the country was around 11,125 ktoe in
2013, and the primary energy supply mainly consisted of 4,814 ktoe ( Tons
Page 96
KPMC Annual Report-2015
of Oil Equivalent) of biomass, 4,582 ktoe of fossil fuels, and 1,442 ktoe of
hydro. Accordingly, 56% of total energy consumption is from indigenous
(biomass + hydro), and Sri Lanka has to import fossil fuels to meet the
balance.
3.2.1
Installed Capacity
Sri Lanka has already achieved a grid connectivity of 98%, which is
commendable by South Asian standards. Current total installed power
generation capacity of the country is approximately 3700 MW, consisting of
1400 MW of coal power, 525MW of oil burning thermal power, 1,356 MW of
hydro power and 400 MW of non-conventional renewable energy sources
such as wind, mini hydro, biomass and solar power plants.
Page 97
KPMC Annual Report-2015
3.2.2
Electricity Demand
The annual total electricity demand is about 10,500 GWh, comprising of
38% from domestic consumers, 39% from industries and 20% from
commercial enterprises, with the balance coming from other sectors such as
religious organizations and street lighting. The overall annual demand for
electricity is expected to increase by around 4-6 %, a number constrained
by high prices.
Sri Lanka will be elevated to a regional hub by increasing its refinery
capacity and utilizing the gas and condensate discoveries in the Mannar
basin to create and meet domestic demand as well as to supply international
oil and gas markets.
3.2.3
Energy Sector Target

4 UAE
4.1 Economy Update
The Emirates’ current macroeconomic performance and near-term outlook
remain favorable. Following a strengthening of UAE real GDP growth to 5.2%
in 2013, driven by the expansion in the non-oil sector, namely services and
construction, strong momentum persisted in 2014, with real GDP growth
forecasted at 4.3% according to the latest IMF World Economic Outlook
amidst a sound non-oil sector growth coupled with a moderation of oil sector
growth. Leading economic and financial indicators actually all point to
continued strong non-hydrocarbon growth driven by tourism, transportation,
trade and the real estate sector.
Notwithstanding an influx of wealth from emerging markets such as Russia,
India and China, the UAE has been the major beneficiary of private capital
flows from other MENA countries following the political unrest in the Arab
World since 2011. This lies within the context of a sound political stability in
the UAE providing a safe haven for capital from within the region and outside
of it.
Page 101
KPMC Annual Report-2015
Undoubtedly, the UAE has successfully pressed ahead with economic
diversification in recent years. The share of non-hydrocarbon in total GDP
has continued to rise to exceed 70% today against 53% back in 2000.
Likewise, non-oil exports as a percentage of total exports exceed two-thirds
nowadays, the highest among oil exporting countries in the region. Dubai is
now a services hub for the region, while the economic diversification
strategy in Abu Dhabi continues to rely on manufacturing, petrochemicals
and renewable energy.
When accounting for direct obligations of the governments and official
entities, consolidated public debt remains low and stable at 26% of GDP. The
government has also made some progress in strengthening its economic
institutions. It has established a debt management office, launched a public
expenditure review and set up a medium term budget framework. However,
Page 102
KPMC Annual Report-2015
the availability of macroeconomic data and disclosure of the government’s
external assets is relatively poor. It is also widely believed that political
institutions in the UAE are nascent compared with those of non-regional
peers.
4.2 Oil & Gas Sector
O&G production remains central to the UAE economy. In 2012, UAE
hydrocarbon exports were $118 billion, more than half of the country’s
goods exports and comprised 80 percent of government revenues. The
industry is set for expansion as the UAE seeks to increase daily production
from approximately 2.7 million to 3.6 million bbl/d by 2020.
UAE is looking to increase production from existing O&G assets. ADNOC’s
expansion of production in O&G fields, both onshore and offshore provides
opportunities across a wide range of technologies and services. As costs of
field exploitation rise, technologies that improve yield and drive costs down
will be particularly attractive. To keep production up and to meet the 3.6
million bbl/d target by 2020.
A consortium owned by ADNOC (60 percent), ExxonMobil (28 percent), and
the Japan Oil Development Company (12 percent). In July 2012, ZADCO
awarded an $800 million engineering, procurement, and construction
contract to Abu Dhabi's National Petroleum Construction Company—along
with French firm Technip—with the goal of expanding production to 750,000
bbl/d by 2016. Production from the Lower Zakum field—operated by the Abu
Page 103
KPMC Annual Report-2015
Dhabi Marine Operating Company (ADMA-OPCO)—should also increase from
the 300,000 bbl/d it currently produces to 425,000 bbl/d.
Monetary policy remains focused on protecting the banking sector and
ensuring that liquidity is sufficient but not excessive. UAE’s 3-month
interbank offered rate has continued to fall, to around 0.7%, indicating high
liquidity. It is estimated that inflation trended upwards but remained
moderate in 2014 averaging 2.2% (1.1% in 2013), as housing prices
increased further. The still benign inflation is tied to subdued global prices,
subsidy schemes, the strength of the US Dollar and the ease of importing
foreign labor to accommodate the increased demand for non-tradables
without the need to significantly change relative prices.
Page 104
KPMC Annual Report-2015
4.3 Hydrocarbons Sector
The UAE’s hydrocarbons sector grew at a forecasted 3.0% in 2014, lower
than the 4.8% growth rate in 2013, reflecting lower oil prices and elevated
production levels. In fact, average oil prices declined by 45.6% at endDecember 2014 compared to end-December 2013 with output slightly higher
in 2014.
Despite the hydrocarbon sector contributing to close to one-third of the
UAE’s GDP, the recent oil price decline would not dent the country’s fiscal
strength as it benefits from several buffers, as per Moody’s. In fact, the
country’s fiscal breakeven oil prices falling below US$ 80 and Abu Dhabi’s
high reserves would continue to ease the impact of oil price cycles.
The UAE’s proven oil and gas reserves were approximated at 138 billion
barrels of oil equivalent in 2013.
About 94% of the UAE’s crude oil reserves are located in the Emirate of Abu
Dhabi, with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) controlling upstream
Page 105
KPMC Annual Report-2015
activity throughout the Emirate, and investing to expand production.
Contributing to the company’s expansion plans, the Abu Dhabi Marine
Operating Company, an affiliate of ADNOC, began initial production from the
offshore Umm Lulu oilfield in October 2014.
The UAE’s biggest imports of O&G equipment are boring and sinking
machinery, line pipe for O&G lines, sub-sea line pipe and casing and tubing.
