With growing population and increasing income levels, industries such as oil and gas, textile, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, pulp and paper are in the process of expanding and renovating their facilities in India to meet with the increased needs of the people. Such process industries are always in expansion mode and thus they are in demand of plants and machineries which are driven by geared motors.

The global industrial gearboxes market is expected to grow at CAGR 4.4 per cent. In India, today estimated market size of industrial gearboxes is worth approximately Rs 1,500 crore. This market is expected to touch Rs 2,000 crore in coming years.

The industrial gearboxes industry in India is populated with large number of vendors. And unfortunately, because of price competition, some of the Indian manufacturers are engaged in importing substandard products from China which bears a negative impact on final equipment performance and reliability.
