Executive Summary

Warehouse and Cold Chains are segments of the logistics sector that have surfaced as critical components of supply chain networks in India. The rapid evolution of organized retail in India along with the emerging large food processing sector has made modern and well developed warehousing and cold chain infrastructure indispensable for storage and transportation of perishable goods. India which is world’s largest producer of fruits and the second largest producer of vegetables does not have facilities for proper storage. Around 25 to 30 percent of fruits and vegetables get spoiled due to improper handling practices and inadequate storage infrastructure.

Organized retail in India grew from USD 16.99 billion in 2006–07 to USD 25.44 billion in 2007–08, a growth of 49.7 percent. According to the retail and fashion research firm, Images Multimedia, India’s organized retail market has the potential to reach USD 45 billion by 2010. Food retail is presenting the most significant growth opportunity for retailers. The development of a modern retail sector will necessitate streamlined supply networks with well developed storage infrastructure between the source and the end consumer. A number of large players are already investing huge sums to develop their supply chains, including a warehouse and cold chain network to ensure the preservation of produce from the farm till the plate. Pharmaceutical sector also depends upon cold chain networks for storage of biotech drugs and vaccines.

The traditional preference for fresh produce among Indians has been a hindrance to the growth of large storage capacities. Additionally, poor connectivity between the production and consumption centers and varied tax structures across the country has also prevented large scale investments in building a nationwide storage infrastructure.

However, the changing consumer trend towards convenience and processed foods indicate a future for greater storage capacities. In addition, introduction of Value added tax (VAT) and a potential shift to a national Goods and Services Tax are also likely to provide an impetus to the sector. Government of India (GoI) is also taking initiatives such as national highway development program and is partnering with Indian Railways to establish storage infrastructure.

Indian Hospital Services Market

Indian Hospital Services Market
  
The report covers the Indian Hospital Services sector with an overview of the healthcare scenario in the country, and the major segments within the industry. It focuses on the dynamics of the sector, the trends over a period of time, and the key challenges faced by the industry.
The competitive landscape provides an overview of the major sector participants including the public, private and community institutions apart from a snapshot of the major players in the sector. This is followed by the any regulatory and taxation issues that impact the sector.
The concluding section of the report covers the future outlook of the industry and will focus on the evolving concept of healthcare, emphasis on quality standards, and government initiatives among other factors that are likely to play a role in shaping the future of the industry.

Executive Reports

Healthcare spending in India accounts for over 5 per cent of the country’s GDP. Of which the public spending in percentage is around 1 per cent of GDP. The presence of public health care is not only weak but also under-utilized and inefficient. Meanwhile, private sector is quite dominant in the healthcare sector. Around 80 percent of total spending on healthcare in India comes from the private sector. Inadequate public investment in health infrastructure has given an opportunity to private hospitals to capture a larger share of the market. In addition the demand for hospital services has been increasing due to the rise in lifestyle related diseases that accompany prosperity.

Hospitals serve an important function in India’s healthcare system. They provide in-patient and out-patient services and also support the training of health workers and research. Indian hospitals can be broadly classified as public hospitals, private and not-for-profit hospitals. Corporate hospital chains that provide tertiary healthcare services in large towns and cities have also been established. However, the number of hospital beds in India is around 1.1 per thousand people. This is significantly lower when compared to most developed economies.

Although rise in disposable income and better availability of health insurance have made health services more accessible the industry still faces a number of challenges. One of the major stumbling blocks is the acute shortage of trained personnel - ranging from doctors, nurses, technicians to healthcare administrators. Nonetheless, this indicates immense opportunity for players keen to establish training & education centers for healthcare personnel. Ensuring high quality of healthcare service is another key issue for service providers. This is because of the fact that majority of hospitals are private and unregulated.

The current outlook for the hospital services is positive. Technological innovations in service delivery, increased affordability, improved service quality and supportive government policy initiatives are some of the factors that are likely to impact growth of the sector. This is a pointer to significant opportunities that exist for service providers. Moreover, the future of healthcare is not restricted to the large domestic market alone. Emerging trend of medical tourism indicates the possibility of Indian healthcare services opening to the whole world.

Executive Summary

The Gems and Jewellery (G&J) market essentially comprises of sourcing, processing, manufacturing and selling of precious metals and gemstones, such as, Gold, Platinum, Silver, Diamond, Ruby, and Sapphire etc. The G&J market is a significant contributor to the Indian economy, based on the size of the domestic market and through its contribution to the country’s exports. India is the largest consumer of gold (around 20 percent of global consumption) and also the largest diamond processor (around 90 percent by pieces and 55 percent by value of the global market).

India’s G&J industry is highly unorganized and fragmented with 96 percent of the total players being family owned businesses. The gold processing industry has around 15,000 players, with only 80 having revenues over USD 5 million. India is also home to around 450,000 goldsmiths, 100,000 gold jewelers along with 6,000 diamond processing players and 8,000 diamond jewelers.

The value chain of the industry starts from sourcing and mining of the metals and extends to jewellery retail. While India is not a major miner of previous metals and stones, the country’s inexpensive and well skilled workforce makes it a world leader in processing of diamonds. The country’s jewellery retail sector is also expected to evolve with a shift among consumers towards branded jewellery, driven by greater quality consciousness.

There are a few major players in the G&J segment, with Rajesh Exports being the most dominant name. Other key players in the field include Gitanjali Gems, Suhashish Diamonds, Su-Raj Diamonds, Vaibhav Diamonds and Tanishq. Many of these players are focused on developing strong brands, large retail operations, strengthening their core manufacturing operations and building a strong international presence.

India’s large population and rapid economic growth offer significant opportunities for growth of the industry. The emergence of jewellery retail chains provide customers with convenience and assurance of quality. The entry of foreign players is also likely to increase competition and provide consumers with greater choice. Apart from the above, there are other factors that contribute to a favorable outlook for the industry.

Aviation Industry in India

The report provides a snapshot of the Indian Aviation Industry and the dynamics that drive the sector. It covers the size and segments of the market, the existing industry scenario, and major trends in the sector. It will also seek to highlight the key challenges that are faced by the industry.

The competitive landscape provides an overview of the major participants in the sector including the interplay among full service and low cost carriers, the changing market share scenario, as well as emerging airport operators. The report also provides a brief snapshot of the carriers and airport operators.

The study further covers the industry regulations, some of the key drivers for the sector and an overview of the outlook for the industry going forward including government initiatives that are likely to play a role in shaping the future of the industry.

Executive Summary

The Aviation industry in India encompasses a wide range of services related to air transport such as passenger and cargo airlines, unscheduled service operators — private jets and helicopters, airport management, and support services like Maintenance, Repairs and Overhaul (MRO), ground handling, in-flight catering, and training.

The Aviation sector has reaped massive benefit from the entry of private carriers, especially from those of the low fare ones. The growth of the airlines sector has caused a sharp upturn in demand for allied services including MRO, ground handling, and catering services. The booming aviation industry, along with its tertiary services, has wreaked a major talent crunch, boosting opportunities for training service providers. The ever-expanding Indian economy and increased demand for trade has pushed the need for air cargo services to a new high. Increasing number of entrants in the sector has forced airports to expand their cargo handling capacities.

The aviation sector is still a small part of the travel and transportation services sector in India. 2006-07 posted annual passenger traffic of about 96 million, as compared to nearly 6 billion passengers carried by the railways. The industry has already bumped into several challenges; inadequate infrastructure being the most crucial. The airlines suffered losses of around USD 500 million in 2006-07 and the situation is expected to deteriorate in 2007-08. The high cost of operations, intense competition, and unsustainably low fares have contributed to these losses. While initiatives have been taken to remove bottlenecks to growth, a need for further investments in capacity is felt more than ever. A recent spate of mergers, however, has come to some relief.

The decelerating profit margin does not entail a slump in revenue generation. It is the increasing costs that have thrown the aviation industry into the present plight. India’s aviation sector stands up to the crisis and races against its fastest growing global competitors. Improved affordability and connectivity add to the expected improvement in both passengers and cargo traffic. Large public and private investments in air travel infrastructure, supported by government initiatives, are expected to pour in.

China: An Insurance Giant

China has been the fastest-growing nation for the past quarter of a century with an average annual GDP growth rate above 10%. Chinese economy is the 4th largest in the world after the US, Japan and Germany, with a nominal GDP of US$3.42 trillion (2007) when measured in exchange-rate terms.

China is the world’s largest untapped insurance market. With GDP growth of over 10% per annum, rapid economic development and a burgeoning consumer class, China has the potential to become one of the world’s most significant insurance markets. Driven by a variety of demographic, economic and regulatory factors, this growth should continue at a solid pace for the foreseeable future. As of late 2004, China was fully compliant with its WTO insurance-related accession provisions, giving foreign firms greater market access. While domestic players dominate the market, foreign insurers are gradually attaining greater market share. Challenges remain, however, and include an overall lack of management talent, unsophisticated consumers, poor distribution channels and non-transparent regulatory approval processes.

Several factors are responsible for this astounding level of growth. Some of the most noticeable ones are China’s aging population; high savings rate and poor social security systems as well as an increasing number of wealthy consumers segment that is spurring growth in the property and casualty, auto and health insurance sectors. Compared to its regional peers, the Chinese market is still substantially smaller than Japan and marginally smaller than South Korea. It is, however, the fastest-growing market in both absolute and relative terms, growing by $61.17 billion and 169.63% between 2002 and 2007. This rapid development of the Chinese insurance market is driven by economic growth, but premium growth has outstripped economic growth consistently over the past five years.

In 1996, total premium .i.e. life insurance and non-life insurance combined was $12.84 billion and in 2007, it was estimated to be $97.23 billion. Between 1996 and 2007, Chinese Insurance sector experienced a CAGR of approximately 20.21%. Between 1996 and 2000, life segment had an increase of $13.11 billion from $7.14 billion to $18.56 billion and between 2002 and 2007, an increase of $37.47 billion from $24.26 billion in 2002 to $61.73 billion. We forecast that life insurance premiums in 2011 will be $108.12 billion. In non-life segment, between 1996 and 2007, a growth of $29.80 billion was seen from $5.70 billion in 1996 and $35.50 billion in 2007. It is expected that non-life premiums in 2011 will be $64.37 billion.

Major Driving Factors

Variety of demographic, economic and regulatory factors
Demand from Commercial Property Segment
Increased risk awareness and demand for sophisticated products
Improved expertise of local insurers
Guarantee rate reform and many other….
Major Trends & Issues

Foreign entrants facing ownership restrictions with respect to joint ventures
Regulatory obstacles for foreign companies
Use of bank channels by insurance companies to reach out to consumers in non-urban areas.
Customer loyalty in China’s insurance market is very thin, and customers are easily poached.
The State Council having recently cleared the way for banks to invest in established insurance companies on a pilot basis.
Focus from price competition has shifted to developing new products and expanding the overall size of the insurance market
Low penetration as a result of low customer awareness.
Need of further capacity and expertise in specialist areas such as MAT, energy, liability insurance.
Emerging Areas

Longer-term foreign exchange life insurance policies
Cross-sector investment (e.g., investment in banks), and an expansion of investment classifications (asset-backed securities, property, industry funds, offshore markets, etc.) for insurers.
Development of a Stock Broker Market
Growth of domestic reinsurance capacity
As per China Insurance Regulatory Commission (CIRC) as of June 30, 2006, there were around 100 insurance companies in China. Out of these 100 companies, there were 56 domestic insurance companies and 44 foreign insurance companies. Domestic insurance companies had a market share of approximately 93.3% and the remaining 6.7% was controlled by the foreign insurance companies. The entire market is quite fragmented and most of these 56 domestic insurance companies are region-centric and are strong in their respective markets. The largest foreign companies are AIU (a subsidiary of AIG), Tokio Marine, and Mitsui Somitomo. As new players have entered the market, competition has intensified significantly, as the existing players fight to maintain their market share.
