India Industrial Plugs and Sockets Market Drivers and Opportunities

Flourishing Oil & Gas and Construction Sectors Favor Market Growth

The oil & gas sector, which is closely related to its energy demand, plays a significant role in boosting the Indian economy. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in February 2024, India became the third-largest consumer of oil in the world. The Government of India has adopted several policies to cater to the rise in the demand for oil and gas. 100% FDI provisions in various segments of this sector, including petroleum products, natural gas, and refineries, further favor its growth. In March 2022, the Board of Oil India approved an investment of INR 6,555 crore (US$ 839.49 million) for the Numaligarh petrochemical project. In March 2024, the Indian Prime Minister launched a series of oil and gas sector projects totaling ~US$ 19.27 billion (INR 1.62 lakh crore) across the country, including those from Bihar, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Punjab. In the oil and gas industry, industrial plugs and sockets are employed to ensure the safe and efficient operations of a wide range of equipment, including drilling rigs and hydraulic systems, by offering reliable electrical connections.

According to the Construction Industry Development Council, the Indian construction industry provides employment to nearly 32 million candidates, and it is the second largest contributor to its national GDP after the agricultural sector. The construction industry in India is divided into two segments: real estate and urban development. The real estate segment includes residential spaces, offices, hotels, retail chains, and leisure park properties, among others. The urban development segment includes subsegments such as water supply, sanitation, urban transportation, schools, and healthcare. With the rising population and FDI inflow, the construction sector in India is continuously growing. Construction sites require an uninterrupted power supply for the functioning of heavy machinery such as excavators, cranes, and concrete mixers. Industrial plugs and sockets are required for the electrical connections of the tools and machinery. They also play a vital part in the continuous operations of site management systems. Thus, the flourishing oil and gas, and construction industries bolster the India industrial plugs and sockets market

Progressive Manufacturing Sector to Create Significant Opportunities for Market

According to the Indian Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), India is the world's third most preferred destination for manufacturing plants, and it is likely to attain the capability of exporting US$ 1 trillion worth of goods by 2030. The country is implementing different programs and policies with an aim to raise the manufacturing sector's contribution to 25% of the economic output by 2025. The Make in India program and the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, attracting foreign direct investments (FDIs) and enhancing industrial infrastructure, provide a boost to the growth of the manufacturing industry. A few of the developments in the manufacturing sector in India are mentioned below:

• In September 2024, Copeland, headquartered in the US, announced its plans to invest US$ 60 million in India to expand its manufacturing facility in Atit, Maharashtra. With this investment, the company also intends to construct a new global R&D center in Pune.
• Till March 2024, PLI for 14 key sectors was announced with an outlay of over US$ 26 billion to enhance India's manufacturing capabilities and exports.

The manufacturing industries such as automotive, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals are receiving massive investments. Efforts being made to set up new manufacturing facilities or modernize the existing ones would generate the need for industrial plugs and sockets to enable electrical connections and minimize workplace-based accidents. Thus, the proliferating manufacturing sector presents numerous opportunities for the future growth of the India industrial plugs and sockets market.
