One problem that the manufacturers are presently facing in many sectors is the problem of inverted duty structure. Under the inverted duty structure, finished goods are taxed at a lower rate than input components. Hence, the higher rate of excise duty on inputs and lower duty on finished goods leads to accumulation of Cenvat Credit which ultimately results as a cost to the manufacturers. The imported raw material users in a range of manufacturing industry segments are in a spot due to inverted customs duty structure that makes them uncompetitive against cheaper finished product imports and discourages domestic value addition.

I agree with that India has surplus manpower and infrastructure, but in addition with that is we are lagging way behind in R&D than other countries. We never spend capital in R&D, rather India follows the trend of expanding fund on buying technologies and MARKETING them according to their targeted consumers. And Also we don't have any platform where our manpower and resources can perform and be efficient. If we talk about solution, BIG GIANTS like tata, rel and Govt of India should invest more in R& D sector, then automatically manufacturing sector will get boost.

Apart from Political will here few things that I want to mention. Not even 4 % of the population is working IT and Service sector, So it is not the entire India is into IT and Service sector. Go to rural place, people migrate to work as Day labors in Cities. People are in fear of starting something new, or introducing new products, or designing new for upcoming working class. People are always telling their kids (hypnosis) to study well to get good job. So they think they were born for modern day slavery. After school and college hardly 2 % study a book or read some important self help article. And those 2 % are those who work in IT or Service sector. People who want to do something (such as business or inventing) are discouraged by saying you do not have money and so on. If there is will there will be a way. People should help other people in rural and smaller cities to start motivating entire India, we will be the youngest Nation (by population) by the year 2060, we can become a wealthier nation and overthrow US economy before 2030.

I feel the basic reason behind this lies in the fact on the quality of education which we get, we are following same education system from post independence and this was designed by Britishers who just wanted us to do clerical works for them, so they emphasized on theoretical education which we still follow, right. Till class 10 we had very less or no practical approach to our studies and in many ways in even after. What we lack is quality technical institutes, yes we do have some of these, but can be counted on fingers when compared to what we actually need. Like one of my friend said (above) countries like japan, Singapore are doing well despite of their low natural resource, India having enough of it is lacking behind as it is efficient personnel's to utilize them.

It is not so we do not have skilled worker or a labourforce but thing is that first we have developed our agriculture sectore then we moved to manufacturing sector and without completing it we moved to service sector. Indias does not have sufficient infrastructure to develope their manufacturing.

The secondary sector (manufacturing industry) in India is slow in race compared to primary and tertiary sectors. The reasons are the same which are mentioned by the other members. But why can't India learn from china which is presently the largest manufacturer in the world. Going back to the 1975 and 1980's the industrial sector in both the counties are more over the same. But from 80's the china showed a rapid growth in the industrial sector surpassing the world majors like USA and Japan. If a country like china which shares a lot common problems could make it, then India should at least try to achieve at least half of the its industrial growth. And surely the government should provide a helping hand.

The main reason behind India not being a major player in manufacturing industry is because of less capable and unskilled worker. Manufacturing industry requires highly skilled worker as compared to IT and BPO sector. Another striking hurdle is that India do not have enough sophisticated infrastructure which is an integral part for a manufacturing industry. Indian citizen are happy to work with low labor intensive job with a descent salary as compared to high intensive labor work in manufacturing industry with low salary. And the last player for IT and BPO sector winning the race is because of many MNCs supporting the IT industry whereas resources required for manufacturing industry is in control of government which has always been a sloggy player for Indian development.

In man power we have more than enough manpower in our country, mainly our country's man power is unskilled so we can make them semiskilled/skilled by starting some training center for them so we can utilized them for manufacturing sector.

Well, summarizing the above points: says that problem is with INDIA and its system. But have we ever fought for the right, do we have unity, Do we have patience to wait for the best and go ahead and lead the system. No youth in this generation is ready to take risk in India. Same time no youth has patience to fight against corruption for long time till it ends. Apart from this, From the birth of a child, 80% parents needs their child to become software engineer and move to abroad. 60% students who score high and have got high talents move to abroad within a short period and will not turn back to India, 20% average students come up with mechanical engineer degree. And few in this who have high scores move to software later after degree due to low payments in manufacturing industry. The rest 20% who get the least scored and have no tensions in their mind and wants their life to be smooth. These people ambition would be to get a small home, get married, get a small car. Lead a simple life. Finally Almost all Indian are in race to earn money rather development. Or worst way to say Indians have become selfish and least worried about development with low salaries. So manufacturing industries in India needs to pay high to remain and grow in India.

India has a huge amount of trained manpower and resources. So, the only problem of India being the leading country in manufacturing is its lack of infrastructure and the non-cooperation of the government. A BPO or an IT company merely needs a few computers, few small rooms and huge amount of manpower, not necessarily has to be trained. They could be trained in a month. Whereas manufacturing companies needs small but highly trained manpower, skilled labour, expensive machinaries, Huge infrastructure. So, this requires huge amount of investment. Lots of hurdles in the Indian government and public sectors discourage high amount of investment to flow in the country. Corruption, inefficiency in every sectors of the government, elongated process time of applications etc. Are the key issues for disinvestment in the country. Indian political leaders and policy makers are also reluctant about manufacturing industries because they may be providing better economic development to the state but the IT companies provide more mediocre, stereotype jobs which is very much necessary to increase the vote-bank. IT companies don't want brains and innovative ideas, they only want a few 'overqualified clerks' to work for them at a 'cheap' rate. So, they outsource their work to developing countries and exploit the young Indian brains leaving them in a 'still developing' country. The only way to enhance Indian Economic and Technological scenario is to stress hardly on manufacturing industries as they can provide the necessary growth for the country.

Hi friends, I would like to quote here an example of UK based entrepreneur Mr. J. C. Bamford (founder of JCB: one of the world's top earth moving equipment company). He started his work in a small rented garage purchasing second hand welding set costing him 1GBP. He made first farm trailer from worn out war materials and worked with his small team of six people for a long time making those trailers and later bringing in more variety. Today JCB is the biggest player in India in earth moving equipments and third across the globe. But unfortunately this business has never taken a giant stride in our country that it could have. I don't remember any Indian "standalone" player who has made its presence felt in and around the Asian continent. Prominent Indian automobile companies like Tata, Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, Eicher etc. Have cutting edge technology in engine designing and fair enough assembly plants. I don't think for such companies to diversify in this segment is hell a big task. The foreign players are now the early birds in meeting India's demand in earth moving equipments. The point is why such companies not become the early adapters and why are they waiting to extend their excellence in such a prospective and lucrative business. The government has always been so reluctant to bring in foreign players in Indian market (a protectionist approach). Despite that we've not been successful enough to grab that early advantaged and probably losing out on huge untapped potential market. Thanks for listening.

India could be a Manufacturing Hub in coming Years. As a fact all are aware that India labor force is the world 2nd largest after CHINA. INDIA holds it place in the World's fastest growing economies. Nowadays, A normal life will be abnormal with out mobile, computers, internet. Everything behind this is TECHNOLOGY. IT gave us power to discover more. Right now it is possible for a 2 Year old kid to see the satellite view of the earth on a click of a mouse button in Google Map/Google Earth. We could talk/video chat to any person in the world with a simple login to SKYPE. No more slips we have carry in our pockets to drop it in bank door steps, you can do all in NETBANKING. Information Technology Era has changed the life of each and every human and as INDIANs we can proudly saw we are participating in the same sector to make life even simpler. Yes, I accept with the points shared by the friends here, India has gained a mass face for IT/ITES/BPO and other back office processes, but we could also see more Foreign Direct Investments are flowing in for the MANUFACTURING/Mining/Power Generation. For Ex: Chennai very famous for its IT presence has been witnessing FDI in Manufacturing. Chennai stands @ rank 2 in IT Exports after Bangalore of producing a GDP of 144, 214 crore during 2006-07. After recession Chennai faced JOB LOSSES in history majorly in IT/ITES sector. Later State Govt brought in more employment in Manufacturing, Power Generation[Wind, Solar, Nuclear]. Tamil Nadu state Govt revised the tax benefits and FDI in Manufacturing grown double in recent years, now Chennai is the base to around 30% of India's automobile industry and 40% of its auto components industry. [9] A large number of automotive companies including Hyundai, Renault, Nissan Motors, Ashok Leyland, Daimler AG, Caterpillar Inc. , Komatsu Limited, Ford, BMW and Mitsubishi have manufacturing plants in Chennai. The Ambattur-Padi industrial zone houses many textile manufacturers, and an SEZ for apparel and footwear manufacture has been set up in the southern suburbs of the city. Chennai contributes more than 50% of India's leather exports. Telecom and Electronics manufacturers based in and around Chennai include Nokia, Nokia Siemens, Motorola, Dell, Wipro, Zebronics, Foxconn and Siemens among others. Telecom giants Ericsson and Alcatel-Lucent, pharmaceuticals giant Pfizer and chemicals giant Dow Chemicals have research and development facilities in Chennai. Well, how many of you people know that Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu is major gold jewellery manufacturing hubs in India? Each and every DELL Laptop, Samsung LCD TVs manufactured in Chennai are labeled as Made in INDIA and sold across ASIA PACIFIC region. All these are few fact figures, we have lot more to come in. India is not just for IT/ITES, we have our foot steps already set in for Automobile, Electronics Manufacturing sectors. All the best. Go India Go!

Before speaking on the topic, I want to tell you that primary sector (agriculture, fishing etc) , secondary sector (manufacturing) and tertiary sector (services) are the three phases of development of an economy. Generally developing economies are dominated by manufacturing sector, while tertiary sector is the predominant contribution to the development of developed economy. But In case of India, there is a mismatch, India being a developing country is characterized by tertiary sector growth. So it indicates India has skipped the second phase of growth. From the beginning of nineteenth century up to independence, agriculture was the main livelihood of people and thereafter followed approximately three decades of five-year plan. In this period, growth was minimal. But suddenly after 1990s, and in the beginning of 2000s, IT/ITes/BPO sector developed, because. - Higher education was in its peak, thus engineering students graduated (increase in manpower). - Willing to work in less pay. - Private sectors were true gainers, used Indian skill to transfer knowledge and job to their country, thus getting a support from their respective country. - For a moment, government thought that it is true development without realizing that the growth comes from outside, and any unexpected circumstance in their country could affect its growth rate. - Although government launched certain manufacturing policies for development of R&D sector, heavy industries like petroleum and mineral industries, agriculture-allied0industries, still the growth was very minimal due to corruption and lack of interest among the men in power. But one fundamental theory of manufacturing sector is that, wages and machines that are used to manufacture goods will depreciate, but human assets have their value. Thus it is best time for India to invest in manufacturing now as it has a lot of advantages. - Large number of skilled and semi-skilled workers available. - Best brains of India that developed in India are returning to India. - India is one of world's largest economy, so it does not have to wait for the world to support its investment. - Many companies have the capacity to invest heavily. Thus finally, I will conclude that India could not be a world class player in manufacturing sector, but by dedicated and coherent partnership by Govt, public sector and private sector can help India being one of the biggest player in manufacturing.

In India we have good speaking skills which leads to impress customers and convince them to take interest in the given field. Another reason is, In India we can get employees for BPO's/it's very easily and in very less pay-scale and its only because of unemployment in other different departments its so finally people have to start their earnings from such kind platform. Manufacturing needs a big amount of investment initially and lots of paper also need to approved by our government. To get all things done we have to give pay bribe on each level this will definitely increase the corruption so its good in bpo/it at least they are private and thus far away from corruption.

India had a lopsided growth compared to other countries. Normally a growth in agriculture is followed by a growth in manufacturing industry which is succeeded by the service industry. But in India we shifted from the agriculture development to the services sector which catapulted our growth to one of the mainstays of the world economy. Because of the huge growth of services, the manufacturing industry was shadowed and contributes hardly 22pc to the GDP which is decreasing further. India currently spends only 1pc to RnD. Also inspite of having a strong patent system, the govt has not encouraged soft loans for inventors to develop and market their product. Another reason as already stated is the huge flux of engineers moving to the more glamorous I. T. Industry thus leading to a mis allocation of skills and lack of skilled people in the core engineering sectors, which offer lesser pay and where jobs require more effort and energy. Having poor infrastructure has discouraged foreign manufacturers from investing in India. It has been calculated that we need $1 trillion to completely develop our entire infrastructure. Hence there's a lot of work to be done. ALso some of the brightest minds from iits and nits prefer the huge pay packages in foreign countries which has affected our r&d sector. All these factors have prevented India from being a strong player in the manufacturing industry.

Sure, IT job offers come in great numbers, but it is YOU who choose to take them because "its the 'easy' way out"! I work in an IT company and as true as it may be, that infrastructure and basic setup require comparatively less amount of money, its utter rubbish that talent or skill is not a requirement! There's something called people skill that is required in addition to the technical know-how of one's job profile! Let's not deviate from the topic and condemn IT/BPO, instead of discussing how we may better the current scenario. We needn't forget how IT/BPO has blessed this country's huge unemployed populace with power to sustain their families, but all the same, we do need to work towards entrepreneur-friendly policies, less bureaucratic involvement in the setup process of manufacturing units, easier capital availability, etc.

We really lack people having the entrepreneurial qualities and those who have it rarely make a good use of it. To become a global manufacturer people should dare to take calculated risks and should set up a business ventures rather than looking for a job. We should believe in Inventing a job rather than discovering any. Extensive research and making good use of the man-power can give us a very good result. We should sharpen the skills of the students in the professional courses and should have a practical approach and give up conventional method of working.

Manufacturing has higher standards and sops than compared to bpo or IT job. Additionaly, in manufacturing sector there are strict norms and availability of resources, infrastructure, skilled manpower and efficient workers are hard to manage whereas in bpo sector and IT field resources are just a room and few computer systems and therotical knowledge is same as the practical knowledge so their skills are not of much importance, whereas in manufacturing sector you needs several requirements and also quality is an important criteion that has to be watched for.

Though Many reasons can be presented for the current scenario like bank rates hike, high duties, poor or no policy reforms etc. , by the industrialists, the main reason why couldn we shine in secondary sector than tertiary, is poor infrastructure, a part of investment. As known by all investment for an IT or BPO company is not so big as for a manufacturing plant. That is why we have seen service takes a huge part in the GDP pie, with good performing financial institutions. The need for the hour is more investment in R&D. Government if couldn't afford to invest more can seek the foriegn aid through FDI. For a country like India where we have the large human resource with enthusiastic youth seeking an arena to learn more, it's no harm to allow FDI to improve infrastructure, just like how China improved it's trade. If there are more jobs in Industrial sector with an ambience to learn and increase the competency level of the employees, no Indian will prefer the BPO's that provide no option to excel.

According to my view we are not as good in manufacturing as compared to BPO's/IT sectors because every one in today's fast world want to make money in quick succession. In IT's/BPO's you can operate from a room on a server and make quick money and get your company benefited. But in manufacturing field we have to struggle. Look for resources, raw material, permission from govt agencies which is a long process because corrupt politician and bureacrats delay the whole things, huge amount of money and patience. Since we are lacking in spirit and resources, opting for manfacturing carrier is not fruitful. Just take an example of TATA Nano factory at Singur West Bengal. Once the whole thing is set up and the company was about to delivered the cars in the market, the politics started its dirty game and forced TATA to shut the manfacturing plant. Here, the focus is not development but the focus is on vote bank because we technology will reach in villages the people will be more educated and advanced. They can think what is wrong and right. So our politicians think that the villagers should not experience a steep progress so that their mind is changed. Due to problem like acquisition of land, mining, lack of raw materials, lack of infrastructure, roads connectivity manfacturing plant in India is still a dream come ture.

Our indians has both man power and mind power but we are using only man power because we are not having required platform to develop our mind power. India having 30 crors youngsters but US has 31crores 20 lacks people only. There are 28, 43, 391 Indians in US. Why they were moved to there? why couldn't develop a new IT Industry? In India there is no resources like R&D (Research and development). So our graduates couldn't proved their innovations and develop industry in India. See, japan is a small country only 127 million people over there but their IT and other industry growth is rapidly increasing because the main reason is they have R&D for every sector. My perspective is, Comparing with other nation we have more man power and mind power, we can do anything. But some people are not willing to take risk while earning more money by IT but Some people has to take risk and try to be a entrepreneur, they are not having that much of money. So without the cooperation of the government it is not quite possible to start this industry.

Indian people have both Man Power and Mind Power. But mostly Indian people use only Man power because they have no suitable platform, India have less resources. One another thing in Indian people that they have talent but they can't express their talent so they didn't get job as they want or according their talent due to lack of communication skills, so they change their job or goal. Second thing is investment in manufacturing industry and a IT/BPO company, after completing gradution a student can open their own company (IT/BPO) with the Bank loan, and easily start their profession with 8-10 system's and 10-15 employer's. But for manufacturing industry their is required a lot of money or investment, so any one can neither think nor start indusry. A Manufacturing industry can start with the help of government if we talking about nano technology, otherwise this is not possible my means not to say impossible without government this will start if Bussiness man want for example Ambani groups, Tata etc.

This is just because of the Lack of infrastructure. Mostly we see in India only IT sector has always been at a boom but as far as manufacturing is concerned.its very limited. Basically India lack in the field of development.despite so much boom in the IT industry.still India is unable to develop any world leading software like windows, etc. As far as electronics is concerned, we have potential engineers that can work in core fields of development but due to the lack of infrastructure, its still not possible to provide them a suitable platform to showcase their skills. The Indian govt should take some steps to enhance development of certain units that will be engaged in the core development processes.It will be beneficial in two ways. 1. Brain drain will reduce to a great extent. 2. The load that IT sector is facing today will also be greatly reduced. Moreover it will add to India's development into a Developed Nation.

It is due to the some reasons as-. If we want to start an IT/BPO company we hardly needs a small room, 8-10 computers & 10-15 employers which can work for long on a lower amount of pay-scale because we have a huge manpower. But to start a manufacturing company we need a very large area, very expensive machines & very well trained manpower which needs a very big money investments. So without the cooperation of the government it is not quite possible to start this industry. As we can take the examples of IC fabrication labs, and nano-technology. Nano-tech was initiated in India but its developing in USA just because of the money.

India has resources required for Manufacturing like Market(Domestic) + Raw Material. What it lacks is Infrastructure ( which is very apparant) I think our basic Problem is TRAINED Manpower, and Leaders. Here I am NOT talking of Political Leaders, but Entrepreneurs, who think LONG TERM and can MOTIVATE team, have CLARITY of thoughts We boast of having Graduate Engineers / Accountants / and various other fields. But does our Education System TEACH them / Prepeare them / Train them for work environment? India has Medium & Small sectors which contribute to more than 40% of Manufacturing. The Manpower is not even aware of IMPORTANCE of being on Time and 100% attendance TRAINING of Skills should also include TRAINING or GROOMING for the PRODUCTION activities!

We are the only people who are willing to accept changes in fastest manner. If you look at 10 years back and today we have changed a lot. If you buy in group of people we can win.

So how we are lacking in IT. We can make our own microsoft , we have the people, technology. US is ahead of us because they are using us, our people working there, the number of engineers we r having in india is the half of the population of US. We can deal with every situation. we just need a well planned goverment ideas and innovation. our govt. is not taking initiatives for uplifting our IT industry that is the 3rd hghst in contributing to the GDP of economy. IT can beat the service and agriculture sector by the people and enginners India have.

I don't want to point these sector but I think these sectors which we are telling i.e.BPO and IT basically are not in search of talent (in India) , they basically need manpower and they train them to work as they want. These sectors are growing so much because it doesnt require much investment in production and manufacture. Only paying a small amount to the employee gets them money. We have got more manpower and people easily get attracted toward these BPO's because they don't require much education and youngsters can easily earn their living. Considering IT sector, now a days we see that a person doing mechanical engineering gets an IT job. They train them one month and then they are ready to run in the race course. This is what happening now a days. Students immediately after graduation gets a job in these sector easily and hence they get attracted more towards them. And hence it is but natural that these sectors will definetly grow. Government should play a part in this. We have got organisations like AICTE and UGC in education which gives accredation to almost all the colleges approaching their door step. Before giving accredation they must consider various points like. 1. Adequate and good faculties are present for each course which the institute is giving. 2. Students getting equal opportunities to get the job in their specialised field. And many more. These things can open the opportunity for the young generation like us to take the field in which we are interested. If we are saying that we have not got talent this is totally wrong. The thing is we are not using our talent properly. Or we can say we are misusing it. It is not that we are not more attracted towards the manufacturing industries but the fact is youngsters are not given much opportunity in these fields. So they try to move abroad and get settle there. This thinking must be changed and if Government is not providing the opportunity we must take a step forward make our own way. Their are lot of manufacturing indusries in our country. We must make our standard so high that we get into that.

I want to mention one thing here is that, we have enough talent but we don't have enough resources. So most of the industrialist investing there money where the resources are enough. For IT and BPO industries no need or we can say very less tax on transformation. So ultimately, investor will look for that first. Transportation of raw material itself takes too much time and money.
