What are the challenges faced by Indian tech and machine tool manufacturers in comparison with international distributors and what are the steps to overcome the same?

Let's take this question in the other way. Now international manufacturers are facing huge challenges as compared to Indian machinery manufacturers in terms of quality, pricing and of course, after sales service. Indian tech and machinery manfactureres are in a better position to offer products that are better in quality and most importantly pricing when it comes to comparing with machines made abroad

India is poised to become the global hub for jewellery manufacturing. What according to you are the important factors that are responsible for the growth of the Indian jewellery sector?

India is already a global jewellery manufacturing hub, Indian jewellery makers & artists across India have played a huge role in the growth of the tech and machiery sector. We believe this combination of technology & artisan is the ultimate for the evolution.

Technology and machinery sector in India is evolving and competing with international tech manufacturers. Your opinion on the growth of indigenous manufactured tech products and the 'make in India' initiative of the government?

India has now become the largest exporter of jewellery machines over the past 5 years in comparison with italian & turkish machinery manufacturers this I do feel is a healthy sign and will only grow with time.

How important is service efciency levels when it comes to distributing and selling state of the art tech and machine tools in India? Are the Indian manufacturers geared for the same?

After sales support is always the most important factor when it comes to selling any product or service in India. As I said earlier Indian manufacturers of tech tools are always at an advantageous position when it comes to serviceing the customers.

What is your advice to the Indian manufacturers to expand and grow among the Indian gem and jewellery sector?

We should always try to be innovative and come out with proucts that are tailor made and user friendly. This I believe will not only generate more business but will also help the jewellery manufacturing sector grow and be more competitive in the global market.
