growing at CAGR 15 percent annually of which about 60 percent of the demand is
addressed by imports currently annually with tremendous boost from the Make in
India initiative.
Domestic production has shown a strong growth of 24.1 percent in
FY 2014-15 over FY 2013-14.
"AMTEX 2016 acts as the seamless platform for exhibitors
bringing business opportunities, world-class technologies and enthusiastic
participants from across the globe to present new technologies, to enhance
productivity and to produce/manufacture and invest in India," said
Managing Director Reed Triune Exhibitions Pvt. Ltd, Cyril Pereira.
"One platform to bring all the relevant sectors and
high-end technologies of the industry like aerospace, automobiles, defense,
electrical and electronics, material handling etc. The forecast of the global
machine-tool market projects a 5.5 percent annual growth rate through 2019,
driven particularly by expanding demand in China and other developing nations.
India is perhaps all set to expand its reach to the global market to become a
key player in the global machine tools industry," added Cyril Pereira.
