6 th All Indian Exhibition & Conference for the Tube and Pipe Industries

India is an increasingly important market. When the Government of India in 1991 ushered in an era of de-licensing, price decontrol, lowering of import restrictions, lowering of duties and abolition of freight equalisation it resulted in increased domestic production and further opened up opportunities for doing business in India. The Indian copper pipes and tubes industry is poised for around 25 per cent growth in the next few years. Estimated investments in Indian steel production capacity will be nearly 243 million tons by the year 2020. This will take India from being the current 5 th largest steel producer to the 3 rd largest by 2015 and 2 nd largest by 2020, second only to China. India will offer $20bn worth of investment opportunities over the next three years for expansion of new ferrous and non-ferrous plants.
