The Engineering sector is the largest in the overall industrial sectors in India. It is a diverse industry with a number of segments, and can be broadly categorized into two segments, namely, heavy engineering and light engineering. The engineering sector is relatively less fragmented at the top, as the competencies required are high, while it is highly fragmented at the lower end (e.g. unbranded transformers for the retail segment) and is dominated by smaller players.

The engineering industry in India manufactures a wide range of products, with heavy engineering goods accounting for bulk of the production. Most of the leading players are engaged in the production of heavy engineering goods and mainly produces high-value products using high-end technology. Requirement of high level of capital investment poses as a major entry barrier. Consequently, the small and unorganized firms have a small market presence

The light engineering goods segment, on the other hand, uses medium to low-end technology. Entry barrier is low on account of the comparatively lower requirement of capital and technology. This segment is characterized by the dominance of small and unorganized players which manufacture low-value added products. However, there are few medium and large scale firms which manufacture high-value added products. This segment is also characterized by small capacities and high level of competition among the players.

The sector is poised to get more skill-intensive according to industry leaders who foresee India map new heights of progress in every aspect. The country is increasingly getting recognised for high value goods requiring a fair amount of engineering precision and quality. The sector is diversifying due to conditions on the ground that global players are using to their advantage. India ranked second in terms of manufacturing competence, according to report '2010.
