Executive Overview
A company incurs capital expenditure (CapEx) to acquire or upgrade physical assets, including property, plant, and equipment. In this periodic report, ARC Advisory Group looks at a number of different manufacturing industries to identify the current CapEx trends in India. We calculate CapEx in two separate segments: based on the money spent on acquiring and upgrading total fixed assets, and on the money spent on acquiring and upgrading the plant and machinery.
While ARC also publishes a separate global Capital Expenditures report for leading industries in all world regions, this report focuses exclusively on India’s capital expenditure analysis and includes the CapEx trends for leading industries in the country. These include automotive, cement, chemical & petrochemical, electric power, metals, oil & gas and refining, food & beverage, and pharmaceutical.
