Indian semiconductor driven market to grow at 13.4% by 2010

A growing market despite a decline in the growth rate

Bangalore, India - Jan 28, 2009 (PRN): The India Semiconductor Association (ISA) and Frost and Sullivan (F&S) released the ISA-Frost & Sullivan report update 2008-10 in Bangalore today. ISA is the trade body representing the Indian semiconductor driven industry. This is the third report on the subject and the second update.

The report was released by Jaswinder Ahuja, Chairman, ISA and Corporate VP and Managing Director Cadence Design Systems India along with Poornima Shenoy, President, ISA and Anand Rangachary, Managing Director, South Asia & Middle East, Frost & Sullivan.

According to the report, the total revenues of the Indian semiconductor market (Total Market - TM) are poised to grow from USD $5.9 billion in 2008 to USD $7.59 billion in 2010 at a CAGR of 13.4%. The Total Available Market TAM revenues are anticipated to climb from $2.53 billion in 2008 to $3.24 billion in 2010 with a CAGR of 13.1%.

The decline in CAGR, from 26.7%, in the earlier report of 2007, to 13.4%, in the current report, is on account of revised investment and manufacturing scenario seen in the second half of 2008. There has also been a decline in the Average Selling Price ASP for various semiconductor components ranging from 3 to 10 percent depending on the final product and the semiconductor content. The overall global slowdown had also not been anticipated during the previous report of 2007.

Speaking at the launch, Poornima Shenoy said, �India is a story of growth and this is important in such times though growth may be below past projections. The current slowdown will impact manufacturing investment prospects. A low manufacturing index for electronic products leads to higher imports and thus lowers the local potential for semiconductors, their key component.�

Anand Rangachary said �Information Technology & Office Automation, wireless handsets and communications segments are going to define the semiconductor market growth. The semiconductor market growth is expected to be driven by products/ services such as set-top boxes, wireless handsets, the 3G rollout, deployment of WiMAX, notebooks and smart cards. Opportunities exist for semiconductors in LCD TV, digital camera and Storage Flash Memory markets�.

India’s growth story a good example

By Lord Swraj Paul,British House of Lords

Iam often asked about how the global Indian diaspora perceives the India growth story. My answer would be:mostly very well, but people would like to see more being done for the poor people of India because a society without all the people benefiting can cause its own problems. Otherwise, India's growth story is seen as an extremely good example.
And I say this even in these hours of gloom and crisis. The crisis is a global one. It requires a lot of vision and hard work on the part of governments and the people to deal with a situation like this.
However, the bright side for India is that the common man is
very resilient.
This is visible when you see the 600 million people earning below $2 a day, yet they still manage to remain reasonably happy and do not protest to an alarming extent. That is the real bright side
of India.
I hope they can persuade the powers that be, and the rich, to keep them in mind.
I have no doubt whatsoever in my mind that there is hope in India's social, political and economic life. And the year 2009 and beyond can actually be turned into years of HOPE with a little bit of extra drive.
On the social side, there is a lot of good development of better and dedicated NGOs, who seem to be working hard. If we can keep them dedicated that is the biggest hope for the social side of life.
On the political side, in my view coalition governments are not a bad thing. However, more understanding will be required in running coalition governments so that every now and then they don't fall apart.
The economy is doing alright, except it is only for part of the society. Indians should make an effort to make things better for all people, and that would be the biggest hope.
Having said this, I must also add that there is no policy prescription for India's business leaders. They don't need any. They are very capable and very good.
The only prescription required is that the poor man also should be considered in whatever they do. They talk about this, but not enough is done on this front. I hope that the talk can be transformed into action now.
If India can successfully address these few issues in their truest perspectives there is no reason why India should not sit in the same row with some of the developed nations of today over the next couple
of years.
I am extremely hopeful that she will. And one will get to see these indications, hopefully from the next year itself.
