The 15th edition of India’s leading trade fair on electronic components and production technology this year will be hosted at BIEC, Bangalore from September 23-25.

Electronica India 2014 and Productronica India 2014 are the events that will showcase innovations and provide networking opportunities for the electronics manufacturing industry.

Demand estimates

India's demand for electronic products is forecast to rise nearly 10 times during this decade to reach $400 billion by 2020, according to industry watchers.

With no major local manufacturing in India, policy makers are worried that electronic imports could exceed those of oil.

The gap between electronic hardware production and the demand for electronic products has been growing over the last few years. While the production has grown at 10-12 per cent per year, demand has been racing ahead at nearly 25 per cent every year, market watchers said.
