The Indian Aluminium Diecasting market is directly linked to the automobile industry. Being fifth-largest in the world and is expected to become the third-largest by 2020. India has a low per capita car ownership of 20 vehicles per 1,000 citizens, as compared to 800 vehicles per 1,000 citizens in the United States and 85 per 1,000 citizens in China. Thus, there exists a huge potential in the Indian automobile and ancillary industry. Out of the numerous die casting companies in India, over 25 units produce around 12,000 tons of die-cast per year.
