Diversified industries in the country drive a robust and stable economic environment, with the Indian economy recording an average growth in the corridor of 6-7% annually for the past decade.

Reduce Cost & Development Lead Times

Indian manufacturers are harnessing the country’s traditional strength in IT to create innovative, digital hardware products. The IT hardware market in India is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% until 2029. This shift gives procurement decision makers the opportunity to source higher-value assemblies and integrated products in shorter time and on a lower cost base than what is globally available.
