Industry Perspectives on Defence Offsets
Defence offsets are expected to generate business in India of about $10 billion over the next five years. Some would be in the form of tangible product and service exports while some in the form of investments made in India, and perhaps technology transfers, and yet some would be reduced through multipliers, banking, etc. We can assume that genuine export business could be $1 to $1.5 billion a year. Large as these may appear, in a trillion dollar economy, the direct impact is less than 0.2 per cent.
