India among world's top 15 automakers: UNIDO report
NEW DELHI: With a burgeoning auto industry to boast of, India has made
it to the top 15 automakers of the world and occupies the fourth
position in the leading developing countries' category of motor
vehicle manufacturers, a UNIDO report has said.
According to the UNIDO International Yearbook of Industrial Statistics
2008, India ranks 12th in the list of world's top 15 automakers, which
is led by Japan followed by the US and Germany. Other countries making
it to list are Mexico, France, Korea, UK, Canada, Spain, Iran, Sweden,
Brazil, Italy and Indonesia.
In the leading developing countries category, India ranks fourth. The
list is topped by Mexico, followed by Korea, Iran. Brazil holds the
fifth position followed by Indonesia, Turkey, Argentina, Thailand,
Singapore, China, China (Taiwan Province), Malaysia, UAE and
Columbia.
India also figures among the world's top 15 producers of chemicals and
chemical products, electrical machinery and apparatus, basic metals
(iron and steel, non-ferrous metals), coke, refined petroleum
products, nuclear fuel, non-metallic mineral products (glass and glass
products, cement, lime and plaster, ceramic products), machinery and
equipment, leather, leather products and footwear and textiles, the
report said.
The country ranks fifth among the top 15 textile producers in the
world. China has captured the top slot followed by the US, Italy,
Japan, Mexico, Thailand, Indonesia, Pakistan, Germany, Korea, UK,
Brazil, Turkey and Bangladesh.
The Yearbook is the 14th issue of UNIDO's annual publication and is
based on 2006 data. It follows the International Standard for
Industrial Classification that categorises the automobile sector as
manufacture of motor vehicles, bodies (coachwork) for motor vehicles,
trailers and semi-trailers and manufacture of parts and accessories of
motor vehicles and their engines.
The main purpose of the Yearbook is to provide statistical indicators
to facilitate international comparisons relating to the manufacturing
sector. Countries are listed in two categories of industrialised and
developing countries in the publication.
