The $1 trillion investment target on infrastructure in the 12th Five-Year Plan is an ambitious one and could be a key growth driver for the material handling industry”

The Indian industrial cranes market is extremely fragmented. According to ElectroMech’s estimate, the industrial cranes market in India would be around ` 2,200-2,500 crore per annum and is pegged to grow at a rate of 20-25 per cent. Almost 30 per cent of the demand for cranes comes from government-owned companies and 70 per cent from the private sector. Tushar Mehendale talks about the industrial cranes market in depth and the success formula to keep clients satisfied. Private sector in detailsThe private sector is the most vibrant part of the Indian economy and growing at a sustained pace. The sector is willing to adopt newer technologies, thus creating scope for innovation in the crane industry. If the sector is divided region wise in terms of quantities of total requirement, Western India contributes 50-55 per cent, Southern India contributes 20-25 per cent, Northern India with 15-20 per cent, and Eastern India with 5-10 per cent.
Over 40 per cent of the total market is captured by a handful of reputed names in the organised sector. The rest of the market is shared by an excess of 250 small crane companies. The material handling industry has been on a continuous growth at varying pace over the years. This can be attributed to the huge amount of investments made by public and private enterprises toward the construction industry, thus giving a direct push toward creating a huge demand for the crane industry.Demand for industrial cranesWith the recent slowdown in the Indian economy, the market witnessed a drop in the announcement of new projects. This has reflected on the demand for industrial cranes. However, ElectroMech is slowly but steadily coming out of this phase. There will be certainly a rise in demand for cranes from various sectors in the next few months. The $1 trillion investment target on infrastructure in the 12th Five-Year Plan is an ambitious one and could well be a key growth driver for the material handling industry.
