China’s enviable growth has been GDP (USD billion) primarily driven by: • China’s careful planning CHINA • huge investment in infrastructure • incentives and subsidies • progressive decentralisation • market-oriented reforms contributed to its manufacturing revolution Now, through the Made in China INDIA 2025 strategic plan, the government is incentivising Chinese companies to leapfrog on the technology forefront by encouraging manufacturers to upgrade their factories in terms of Manufacturing as a % of overall GDP quality, productivity and digitisation. INDIA 16-17 % CHINA 29-30 %
Cost and Quality of Power • Cross subsidization along with additional tax like coal cess, RPO and PAT • In terms of quality of power, India ranks 80 out of 137 countries (WEF) • highest transmission and distribution losses in electric power in Asia High Logistics costs • 60% cargo travels by road • Indian logistics costs are 14-15% of GDP, almost double of the 7-8% of GDP in developed countries Growing skill mismatch and low labour productivity • Only 4.7% of India’s workforce is formally skilled, vs 96% (South Korea) and 24% (China) • Productivity in value added/ hr: China and Brazil is 1.6 and 2.9 times India Negligible R&D Investment • India’s spending on R&D as a share of GDP is 0.6% vs China (2.1%), South Korea (4.2%) and Israel (4.3%) • Need for greater government spending, and also industrial application oriented R&D
Productivity Lower Productivity directly impacts directly either the quantity or the quality of the final product Technology Labour • Better engagement/ Motivation • Digitization • Improving the quality of • Automation India’s productivity is only 60-65% training/ education • Industry 4.0 • of that of China. This represents a Industry-government • Increase R&D huge scope to become competitive tie-ups to train expenditure workforce

Watch manufacturing
Approach automation considering all the below factors: • No. of people • Safety • Quality • Productivity • Consistency Automation Only for replacing the people will not be a right option Child parts without consistency in manufacturing can bring more minor stoppages to machine operations Automation with compromise's on safety can be disastrous Automation without focusing on Quality & Productivity can help in achieving the final products with less output rate and more rejections
