Indian Communications Test and Measurement Equipment Markets

India’s growing reliance on telecommunications and data transmission is the most powerful driver the industry has ever experienced. The success of this market has carried over to the test and measurement (T&M) equipment sector, which has a vital role in instrument operation. India’s goal to and attain global communications standards should ensure the healthy growth of the communications T&M equipment market over the forecast period.

This Frost & Sullivan research offers a comprehensive guide to the Indian communications T&M equipment markets. By examining industry challenges and supplying strategic recommendations, this analysis affords your firm the opportunity to capitalize on key growth opportunities.

Fiber-Optic Cable Installations Drive Demand

With greater bandwidth and the ability to transmit voice and data reliably, fiber-optic technology has rapidly attracted both individual and corporate users within the Indian marketplace. Large organizations have been willing to invest in installing their own fiber-optic infrastructure to support specific needs. Upon completion, these ventures will form a formidable communications network.

"The fiber-optic network projects currently underway are expected to result in remarkable growth in the purchase and usage of T&M equipment as system maintenance is reliant on T&M instruments. While the present economic slowdown has forced some companies to postpone the purchase of T&M equipment, the demand from this sector will stabilize over the long-term," states the study’s author.

Deregulation of Transmissions Sector Creates New Avenues of Growth

After years of government regulation, India has finally deregulated its national and international long-distance telephony services, with no restrictions on the number of market participants. This move is expected to compel private service providers to construct a growing number of networks and international gateways.

"The entry of new competitors into the long-distance services markets portends a bright future for the T&M industry. This segment is expected to create demand for additional communications equipment and associated T&M equipment," says the analyst.

This Frost & Sullivan research examines the unique features of the Indian marketplace, enabling your company to successfully maximize its returns.
