from

economies of scale

Industry Conditions
The ability to gain access to technology of major operators, as the present incumbents include some of the largest multinationals, that have considerable claims to new technology. The relative large size of domestic market, together with high competition, has already seen significant

rationalization of this industry.

Industry Volatility
The level of volatility is medium. According to the Economic Times of India, economic liberalization foreign currency allowing unrestricted and export

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and removing

neutralization obligations has been also been one of the key to

India's automotive volatility.

Industry Volatility
This has been the result of fluctuations in metal prices and fuel prices, as well as changes in legislation and assistance packages. India's increasing per capita disposable income and growth in exports is playing a major role in the rise and the competitiveness of the industry.

Advantage In India

While that of three-wheelers stood at 49,255 units in

November 2011.

Drawbacks
Even with this rapid growth, the Indian automotive

industry's contribution in global terms is very low.

This is evident from the fact that even thought passenger and commercial vehicles have crossed the production figures of 3.5 million in the year 2010,[ yet India's share is about 3.28% of world production of 70.53 million passenger and commercial vehicles.

India's automotive exports constitute only about 0.3% of

global automotive trade.
