Survey on Foreign Collaboration in Indian Industry: 2012-2014 - Data Release

The Reserve Bank of India today released, on its website, the data related to the results of the tenth round of the Survey on Foreign Collaboration in Indian Industry covering the years 2012-13 and 2013-14.

This survey captures comprehensive information on various aspects of operations of Indian companies having technical collaboration with foreign companies during the reference period as per the schedule. In the tenth survey round, 866 Indian companies responded, of which, 303 companies reported 528 foreign technical collaboration (FTC) agreements. The highlights of the survey results are presented below:

Highlights:

  • Coverage: Out of the 303 companies which reported agreements during the period 2012-14, 160 were foreign subsidiaries (single foreign investor holding more than 50 per cent of total equity), 94 were foreign associates (foreign investors holding ranging between 10 per cent and 50 per cent of total equity), 9 had pure technical collaboration and the remaining 40 companies had less than 10 per cent foreign equity participation and/or had only outward investment (Table 1).

  • Industry-wise distribution of agreements: The share of manufacturing sector in the total FTC agreements increased substantially while that of services sector decreased in the tenth round. The share of construction sector and agriculture-related activities was higher when compared with the ninth round of the survey (Table 2).

  • Country-wise distribution of agreements: In terms of source of technology transfer, Japan, USA and Germany were the top three countries which together accounted for 51 per cent share in total FTC agreements of responding companies during the survey period (Table 3).

  • Type of assets transferred: Among the FTC agreements reported by companies, the share of agreements providing “Know-how transfer” increased to 66.9 per cent from 45.8 per cent in the ninth round of the survey (Table 4).

  • Modes of Payment: The share of agreements involving (a) royalty and lump-sum technical fees, (b) only royalty and (c) only lump-sum technical fees stood at 30.5 per cent, 48.1 per cent and 21.4 per cent, respectively during the survey period (Table 5).

  • Export restrictive clauses: The proportion of FTC agreements with export restrictive clauses increased marginally in the manufacturing sector, when compared with the previous survey round. An analysis of country-wise agreements shows that the share of agreements with export restrictive clauses increased with USA, United Kingdom, Italy, and Switzerland and decreased with Japan, Germany, Korea and France. (Tables 6 and 7).

  • Provision of exclusive rights: Any provision of exclusive rights to an Indian company in FTC agreement restricts the foreign collaborator from transferring such assets to other parties operating in India. The proportion of agreements providing exclusive rights on assets transferred under the agreements increased significantly in manufacturing sector and services sector vis-à-vis the previous survey round (Table 8).

  • Value of Production: Total value of production of the FTC reporting companies increased from ` 1826.7 billion in 2012-13 to ` 1954.2 billion in 2013-14. The share of manufacturing sector in the total production improved significantly, while the share of services sector shrank when compared with the previous survey round (Tables 9 and 10).

  • Profitability: The average profitability of FTC reporting companies measured by ratio of gross profit to the capital employed increased from 10.0 per cent in 2010-12 to 14.8 per cent in 2012-14 (Table 11).

  • Exports and Imports: Total exports of FTC reporting companies increased from ` 182.8 billion in 2012-13 to ` 203.7 billion in 2013-14 with manufacturing sector constituting the dominant share in exports. Imports of the FTC reporting companies increased marginally from ` 452.5 billion to ` 476.8 billion over this period with manufacturing sector holding the dominant share of import payments made by the FTC companies (Tables 12 and 13).
