India has been and will continue to be a driving force in demand growth globally, as it is well-recognized, and one that everyone wants a piece of. According to a presentation by Indian Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), in 2019, revenue for the Capital Goods industry that includes all machinery from Machine tools to Agricultural Machinery, and Material handling equipment to passenger and utility vehicles, is estimated to rise to a whopping $115 billion in 2025 from just $70 billion in 2017. This directly implicates the rising need for mechanical power transmission and its allied products in the market, upon which most machinery is reliant.
A large majority of the gearboxes in the Indian market are imported due to the lower cost that has been achieved by overseas players, and Indian manufacturers do not currently possess enough capacity to meet local demand. This has allowed for the emergence of importers and stockists to emerge as forerunners that control a large majority of the retail and wholesale market, especially for universal mounting gearboxes, that include, but are not limited to, worm reducers, helical-inline, bevel-helical and heli-worm gearboxes.

Going further, HRG Transmission is looking forward to entering the extruder gearbox, worm reducer and helical-inline gearbox market with a new plant in the current premises that will boast state-of-the-art, heavy-duty, and high-speed machines, with spindle speeds going as high as 12,000 RPM to compete with low-cost, quality-deficient imports with improved ‘Made in India’ gearboxes. It is also planning to take low-cost gearbox imports head-on, especially for universal mounting aluminum body worm reducer gearboxes and helical-inline gearboxes, and compete in the market with a superior product. “There is a network of stockiest and retailers that import low-cost subpar gearboxes. We as manufacturers need to help curb substandard and cheap incentivized imports from East Asian countries, and promote made in India products,” concludes Siddharth.
