Otis Elevator Company (India) Ltd is looking to cash in on the country’s infrastructure growth.
The company is betting big on the upcoming 19 metro rail and 20 airport modernisation projects in India.
By 2016, the domestic elevator market is expected to grow to 70,000 units from 45,000.
While Otis will
bid for the metro and airport projects, the vertical expansion of
residential and office complexes will create additional opportunities.
Otis, part of the
US-based diversified United Technologies Company (UTC), is also
expanding its Bangalore manufacturing unit. The capacity will be ramped
up to 10,000 units from 3,500 units. Work is likely to be completed by
August 2013. The company remained tight-lipped on the investments.
“India is the
second-largest elevator market in the world. There are issues in the
economy. Real estate has been down with a year-on-year growth of 10 per
cent, while the expected growth was 15 per cent. However, there is an
inherent demand for infrastructure,” said Sebi Joseph, managing director
of Otis Elevator Company (India).
Globally, Otis has
a 25 per cent market share in elevators, recording $12.4 billion sales
revenue in 2011, of which 80 per cent were from outside the US.
