CoverStory
Power transmission and distribution industry has come a long way, and has undergone significant progress
witnessing exponential growth after independence. In about 70 years India has reached power generation capacity of more than 300 GW from about 1400 MW in 1947. The sector remains to be one of the most critical, now capable of serving entire country while reaching 100% electrification. Country’s demand is however ever increasing, and therefore power sector is not only geared to grow but be at par with having the latest technology. In order achieve so and get deeper into global markets, significant addition to the installed generation capacity is required. With this, it is inevitable that need for electrical equipments shall increase substantially in coming years. How much of the demand would be available to Indian Industry depends upon various factors- some in control of the industry and some not in control of the industry like reforms in domestic (taxes, processes and procedures) and international policies.
Indian power sector is not only growing, but also undergoing a significant change that has redefined the industry outlook. Total installed capacity recently reached 344 GW, with ‘State Sector’, ‘Central Sector’ and ‘Private Sector’ commanding 24.6%, 30.2% and 45.2% respectively.

Based on production and sales data collected from member organizations, which represents about 95 percent of the entire electrical equipment installed in India coupled with detail analysis of other non-member sectors, it is seen that electrical and industrial electronics industry has witnessed an overall growth of 12.8% in the year 2017-18 over the previous year, with domestic industry size increasing by 32%. In the last Quarter (Q4, 2017- 18), 14.3% growth was registered after an acceleration in Q3 (of 24.7%) and just 4.28% in Q2 over same period of last year. Growth in Q1 was however 9.71%.

Sluggish demand (albeit continued growth) and imports continued to adversely impact industry’s market share especially certain segments like Conductors and Insulators.
Mr Shreegopal Kabra, President, IEEMA said, “A substantial improvement in growth was experienced in the 3rd and 4th quarter of 2017-18 which resulted in a sharp rise in the performance. During this period, the industry grew by 25% in Q3 and 14% in Q4. The astonishing growth of 12.8% is propelled by growth in segments like rotating machines by 12%, HT Motors 18%, cables 20% and Meters 28%. The government is procuring smart and prepaid meters to be deployed across the country. It has urged electricity meter manufacturers to scale up production in India, as it plans to shift all connections to smart prepaid meters over the next three years. Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) has floated two global tenders for procuring a total of 10 million smart meters.”

“Growth is also seen in transmission mission line towers due to increase in demand in the domestic market. The Installed Generation Capacity as on 31st March 2018 is 3,44,002 MW. Almost all sectors are in green after 2 years of dull period; mainly due to domestic demand. The high growth in Q3 & Q4 is also due to stabilized GST,” he further added.”
The industry’s record performance is attributed to Government’s schemes like DDUJGY, IPDS and Saubhagya where the country is racing to provide electricity to households in the villages. The government unveiled Rs 16,320 crore Pradhan Mantri Sahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana (SAUBHAGYA) in September to provide electricity connection to around 4 crore families in rural and urban areas by December 2018. Joining hands with government for this cause, IEEMA alongwith REC has created a North East Cell to give impetus to this growth by emphasizing on distribution in North East.
With reforms like Make in India and Ease of doing business, India has jumped a record 30 places to the 100th spot in the World Bank Doing Business rankings and aims to be in the top 50. Thus to achieve the target the present Government has been showcasing the spectrum of measures focusing on rural and infrastructure sectors.
Mr Sunil Misra, Director General, IEEMA reacting on the industry growth articulated, “We believe that this growth momentum will be sustained since major chunk of transmission and distribution projects are likely to be ordered in next fiscal. However, most of the orders would be through EPC route with more new players entering the business and sub-contracting the same to existing contractors. The sectors seem to be reviving from the dark days. Talking about the renewable sector, the Solar Capacity has increased rapidly in last three years from around 2.6 GW to 22 GW. The government is taking proactive steps to achieve the RE generation targets. However, there are still concern areas which have led to decline in growth of Conductors and Insulators.”
At the same time while the growth was there in all the sectors, there was a surge in raw material price in major metals and insulating materials. This has affected adversely the cash flow of the manufacturers thereby affecting the delivery.
Exports in power sector have been growing at about 8% CAGR, while imports have been at 4% in last 5 years.

With such growth in power sector, it is important to protect electrical equipments’ industry from imports. Today, the focus of industry however has been imports coming under even FTAs (Free Trade Agreements), which have caused injury to certain product segments of the industry.
Further, it is equally important to enhance exports. However, larger part of the industry feels that Govt. needs to further incentivize the industry. And recently with concerns raised by the US on export incentives being available to Indian industry, it is of prime importance to not only protect interest of the industry but also look for alternates.
Simultaneously, industry segment which is facing injury due to undesirable imports (as industry is self- sufficient to serve current and growing demand), it must try to regularly check whether such imports are happening due to unfair trade practices. Govt. has been aggressively using various trade defense action measures to provide level playing field to Indian industry.
While protecting the domestic demand from imports and providing level playing field, Govt. and industry need to put efforts to generate demand, bring quick policy reforms and encourage more investment in power generation. India will be able to double its power generation in the next seven years, Union Coal and Power Minister Piyush Goyal said. Some major investments and developments in the Indian power sector which have been reported are as follows:
