INDIAN CHEMICAL INDUSTRY

– CURRENT STATUS

The Chemical industry is one of the world’s largest. In 2008, its sales exceeded 3 trillion USD. More than 20 million people around the globe have a job connected to Chemical industry (directly or indirectly). Chemical products and technologies

are used in almost every area of the world economy. As the global economy grows, it increases the demand for the chemical industry’s products. This growth drives product innovation and the industry creates new products every year while striving to improve production process and use resources more efficiently.

The escalation of crude oil prices, demanding international environment protection standards and climate change have posed major challenges to the chemical industry. Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) has provided an impetus to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions in the developing countries particularly in the chemical industry.

The Indian Chemical industry is one of the oldest industries in India and contributes significantly to the industrial and economic growth of India. It is thus an important constituent of Indian economy. Its size

S.R. LOHOKARE, Managing Director, National Peroxide Ltd.Mr. S. R. Lohokare, Chairman-Western Region and Chairman-Technology & Energy Expert Committee of Indian Chemical Council recently participated in the EU – INDIA Meeting held at Barcelona. The paper presented by Mr. Lohokare at the meeting highlights the current status of the industry and we hope the readers will find it very informative.

Thus the chemical sector contributes to 5.03% of India’s GDP and 20.87% of the industrial sector by value.

1.0 INDUSTRY ovERvIEwThe Indian Chemical Industry is ranked 12th largest in terms of volume and 3rd largest in Asia. It is growing annually at over 10%. Since liberalization the Indian Chemical industry has evolved from being a basic chemical producer to becoming an innovative industry. With investments in R&D, the industry is registering significant growth in the knowledge sector comprising of speciality chemicals, fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals. It is one of the most diversified of all industrial sectors offering more than 70,000 products.

Total exports from India during 2008-09 and 2009-10 were 185.295 billion USD and 176.575 billion USD respectively. Export of chemicals and related products were 24.066 billion USD in 2008 – 09 amounting to 13.63% of the total exports. Total imports during 2008-09 were 303.696 billion USD. Of this, Chemical sector imports were 28.19 billion USD amounting to 9.28%.

The Indian Chemical Industry has come out of its protected market since liberalization. Although the maximum customs duty is 7.5% as a result of number of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) signed recently the actual duty protection to the chemical industry is significantly lower.

THE CHARACTERISTICS of THE INDIAN CHEMICAL INDUSTRY:z High domestic demand potential, as the Indian markets

develop and per capita consumption levels increasez High degree of fragmentation and small scale of

operationsz Limited emphasis on exports due to domestic market

focus and smaller scale operationsz Low cost competitiveness as compared to other

countries due to high cost of feedstock and power taxation structure and cost of capital

z Low focus on R&D despite initiatives to innovate processes to synthesis products cost effectively.

3.5.2 pOlyeSter Filament yarn (pFy)PFY production during 2008-09 was 1261.77 KT. Net export/import of PFY was negligible during the year. The capacity addition in case of PFY is mainly due to expansion of existing players and backward integration of downstream players. Demand growth is expected to be 10% in 2010 and 2011.

SummaryThe size of the Petrochemicals segment is estimated at US $ 13.96 billion. Annexure VI provides details on how the estimate is arrived at.

Based on the above the size of the Basic Chemicals industry can be estimated as under :

5.1 pHarmaCeutiCal induStryThe Indian Pharmaceutical market grew at a robust 16.9% in 2009 to Rs.401 billion (USD 853) (ORG IMS MAT Dec 2009). The acute segment grew at 16.3% during the year as against 18.7% growth in the year as against 18.7% growth in the chronic segment. Of the overall market growth, existing products contributed 10.3%, new products (launched in the last 2 years) contributed 5.7%, while price changes contributed 0.9%.

The Indian Pharmaceutical market is the fourth largest in volume terms and 15th largest market in value terms. It is primarily a retail based branded generic market with 80% dispensed through pharmaceutical outlets. The market is growing at 11.67% per annum to reach the size of USD 20 billion by 2015 and USD 30 billion by 2020. In the past 5 years it has grown at 13.5% and at 12.6% in the past 2 years.

The industry is undergoing consolidation. With the recent acquisition of Piramal Health Care and Solvay Pharmaceuticals by Abott Laboratories, it has emerged as the leader in the Indian domestic market with a share of 6.84%. Ranbaxy entered into an alliance with one of the largest Japanese innovator Companies Daiichi Sankyo Company Ltd., to create an innovator and generic pharmaceutical power house. The combined entity now ranks among the top 20 pharmaceutical companies globally.

The top 5 pharmaceutical producers as per their 12 months ended January 2009 in the Indian domestic market and their market share, is as under :

metHOdOlOgy uSed1.1 vOlume dataAnnual report 2009-10 of Department of Chemicals and Fertilizers of Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers has been used for the productwise production of major chemicals. Annexure I attached gives these details for Inorganic chemicals, Organic chemicals, Pesticides and Insecticides and dyes and dyestuffs. Annexure II (Annexure III of Department’s annual report) for major petrochemicals.1.2 Exception has been made in case of Caustic Soda industry as detailed data on production, sales tonnage and price for the year 2008-09 is available from the Notification dated 9th April, 2010 from Ministry of Finance (Department of Revenue) (Office of the Director General of Safeguards Customs and Central Excise). Liquid Chlorine volume is taken as 0.7 of Caustic Soda. Rest is used for value added products which are accounted separately. For chlorine GACL’s price from their annual report is used. 1.3 In case of Soda Ash annual reports of producers have been used to obtain the price as well as volume data. Additional data has been obtained from Tata Chemicals for domestic sales.1.4 In case of other Inorganic Chemicals except Carbon Black, the production data of the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals is used. The price of Kilburn Chemicals for TiO2, DSCL for Calcium Carbide, Tanfac Industries Ltd., for Aluminium Fluoride from their respective annual reports is used. In case of Carbon Black data from annual reports of Aditya Birla Novo Ltd and Philips Carbon Black is used. In case of Potassium Chlorate and Red Phosphorus price data has been orally obtained from manufacturers.1.5 In case of other organic chemicals the production data of Department of Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals is used. Wherever price data is available from the annual data of

a large producer, the same has been used. In case of Nitrobenzene, Acetaldehyde and Isobutylene, the prices from manufacturers have been obtained as the same were not available from annual reports.1.6 The data on production of the fertilizer industry has been obtained from Fertilizer Association of India. In 2008-09 the high turnover in 2008-09 was due to abnormal hike in raw material prices. Hence the estimated turnover of 2009-10 has been considered to determine the size of the industry.1.7 In case of petrochemical industry the production data of Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals has been used. Since the turnover in 2008-09 was high due to abnormal hike in raw material prices the current prices

have been considered to determine the size of the industry. Data on Fibers had been based on 50% value addition. For chemicals 20% has been added.1.8 In case of speciality chemicals the data on Paints has been obtained from the presentation of Mr. Ishwar Subramanian, Managing Director, Akzo Nobel and Speciality Chemicals from Mr. Philip Logan in Vision 2020 – The Third India Chemical Industry Outlook Seminar.1.9 In case of agrochemicals the data from the presentation of Mr. Arun Dhuri of Excel Group Care in Vision 2020 - The Third India Chemical Industry Outlook Seminar has been used. The data on individual Companies has been obtained from their annual reports.

1.10 In case of pharmaceuticals the data from annual reports of Sun Pharma, Ranbaxy and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories has been used. ORGIMS data has been extensively used by the industry.1.11 The conversion of Rupees into USD is carried out at the exchange rate of Rs.47/USD. z
