This means that services have dominated the economies of these countries leading to an overall global economic change.

Threat of New Entrants New entrants in the aviation industry face intense competition from the existing players and these new entrants themselves act as a huge competition to the settled players in the market. Barriers for new entrants: 1. High initial setup cost- The initial setup costs for the entrants include the airbus costs, setup costs, licensing costs, costs to airports, inventory costs, and many other costs including taxes.

With the entry of a new entrant, the existing companies can easily defend their market share from the former. Additionally, the existing companies have an advantage of the economies...

...infrastructure industries such as mining and electricity, industrial production fell in November as the manufacturing sector contracted by 3.5 per cent compared to a year ago. Industrial growth is likely to remain weak for the rest of 2013-14 due to infrastructure and input constraints, and weak domestic demand. Robust export growth with rising global demand may however, provide some cushion to manufacturing production. Even though the mining ban has been lifted in Karnataka, revival in mining output will be slow as it will take time for firms to obtain relevant clearances and ramp up production. The Cabinet Committee on Investments has also been fast-tracking stalled projects; however, as most of these are infrastructure projects and have long gestation periods, the impact of these measures will not be felt until 2014-15. Core sectors such as mining and electricity rebounded in November from last month’s lows as higher coal production lifted mining output and raised power production. Electricity output grew by 6.3 per cent while mining expanded by 1.0 per cent in November. Mining sector has now contracted for three consecutive years (-2.2 per cent for April-November 2013) while manufacturing growth has completely collapsed (Figure 1). The only bright spot is electricity production, which has managed to sustain positive growth despite the sharp slowdown in the economy. Manufacturing sector’s dismal performance has been largely driven by domestic demand-dependant industries. With private...

Kher Submitted By Rameez Bagban 03 Shahanawaz Mujawar 11 For the academic year 2014-15 INTRODUCTION: The Indian automobile industry is one of the key drivers of industrial growth and employment, which will gain rapid importance. In order to accelerate and sustain growth in the automotive sector, a roadmap is needed to steer, coordinate and synergize the efforts of all stakeholders.

...Food Industry Last Updated: June 2012 Introduction The food services sector in India is expected to witness a 50 per cent increase in investments in 2012 to about US$ 750 million, as food suppliers and retail companies plan to scale up business and stay competitive by tapping the large potential of the domestic market. Of the total investments of US$ 750 million in 2012, about US$ 165 million has gone into purely front-end retail, such as fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), food and beverage firms. India is the world's largest milk producer, accounting for around 17 per cent of the global milk production, according to RNCOS research report titled, 'Indian Dairy Industry Analysis'. The study anticipates that the milk production in India will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 4 per cent during 2011-2015. Further, India has emerged as one of the largest potential markets for organic food consumption globally. The organic food is invariably catching up pace among the Indian retailers, especially with the niche retailers owing to wide awakening among Indian consumers towards leading a healthy life, as per RNCOS research report titled, 'Indian Organic Food Market Analysis'. We anticipate that the sector will post significant growth during 2011-2013, growing at a CAGR of 15 per cent. Indians spend US$ 64 billion annually on eating out, which includes $13 billion on eating in quick-service restaurants (QSRs) such as McDonald's and Costa Coffee, propelling...
