Government of Kerala Department of Industries and Commerce Report on IDUSTRIAL POTENTIAL SURVEY- 2017 Idukki District Compiled By District Industries Centre, Idukki Email – [email protected], Ph - 04862-235410, 235507 Report on Industrial Potential Survey – 2017 Compiled by District Industries Centre Idukki Preface The development of any region depends on the growth of different sectors of its economy. The industrial development of any region depends on the resources, skills, infrastructure etc. available in that area and the demand for goods and services. Keeping this in view and the urgent necessity for acceleration the industrial growth of the State, the Government of Kerala decided to institute an Industrial Potential Survey in all districts. The report of Industrial Potential Survey of Idukki District is prepared with the aim to analyse the industrial scenario of district on par with the availability of resources and infrastructure and thus to identify potential industrial sectors prominent for rapid industrialization based on consumer taste and demand. Efforts have been made to point out the Weakness in facilities and to study the problem faced by the entrepreneur in MSME sector. Though the district lack rich infrastructure the abundance of mineral and agriculture resource are immensely helpful for setting up a large number of manufacturing units in MSME sector. The government objective of achieving balanced regional development, encouraging new and prospective entrepreneurs, optimum utilization of resources and exploiting local skills etc have been kept in mind while preparing the report. The role of other Government agencies involved in industrial promotion and growth achieved through them are also considered in this report. I thank for all Officers whose contributions to data collection, analysis and interpretation is a valuable asset for the preparation of the report. I hope that this publication provi8des useful information on the assessment problems and shortcoming in the process of implementation of industrial promotional activities and would be extremely useful to the planners and policy makers to take suitable action to ensure industrial development of the district.

Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) contribute nearly 8 percent of the countrys GDP, 45 percent of the manufacturing output and 40 percent of the exports. They provide the largest share of employment after agriculture. They are the nurseries for entrepreneurship and innovation. They are widely dispersed across the country and produce a diverse range of products and services to meet the needs of the local markets, the global market and the national and international value chains. 1.1 MSME Sector in India The industrial sector is one of the main sectors that contribute to the Indian GDP. The country ranks fourteenth in the factory output in the world. The industrial sector is made up of manufacturing, mining and quarrying, and electricity, water supply, and gas sectors. As per the provisional estimate National GDP, for the year 2016-17 the industrial sector accounts for around 19.11% of the India GDP and it employs over 17% of the total workforce in the country. The Growth Rate of the Industrial Sector in India GDP came to around 7.55% in 2016- 17. In this year, within the India GDP, the mining and quarrying sector contributed 1.18%, the electricity, water supply, and gas sector contributed 6.07 %, and the manufacturing sector contributed around 8.53%. The following table shows the component wise contribution of Industrial sector of GDP at current prices (base on 1011-12 series) Year 2011-12 % 2012-13 % 2013-14 % Mining & quarrying 261035 2.99 285842 2.87 295794 2.63 Manufacturing 1409986 16.14 1572837 15.82 1713452 15.25 electricity , water supply, and gas sector 186668 2.14 215350 2.17 260155 2.32 Industry Total 1857689 21.26 2074029 20.86 2269401 20.20 GDP 8736329 100 9944013 100 11233522 100 Year 2014-15 % 2015-16 % 2016-17 % Mining & quarrying 314177 2.52 296253 2.17 301921 1.99 Manufacturing 1883937 15.14 2064820 15.09 2257413 14.87 electricity , water supply, 279631 2.25 321651 2.35 342422 2.26 1 and gas sector Industry Total 2477745 19.91 2682724 19.61 2901756 19.11 GDP 12445128 100 13682035 100 15183709 100 It can be seen that the contribution of Industry sector in diminishing year by year and its rate is give in the diagram. % Growth rate of industry sector 21,5 21,3 20,9 21 20,5 20,2 19,9 20 19,6 19,5 % to GDP 19,1 19 18,5 18 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 The following table shows % Contribution of Industrial sector and GDP at current prices (base on 1011-12 series) Year 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 Mining & quarrying 2.99 2.87 2.63 2.52 2.17 Manufacturing 16.14 15.82 15.25 15.14 15.09 electricity ,water supply& gas 2.14 2.17 2.32 2.25 2.35 Industry Total 21.26 20.86 20.20 19.91 19.61 GDP 100 100 100 100 100 25,00 20,00 15,00 Min and Quarr Manufacturing 10,00 Elec, Gas &water Industry 5,00 0,00 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2 1.2 MSME Sector: Kerala &Idukki Industrial sector occupies a vital role in the state economy. It plays a very important part in the overall economy of the region. Idukki is an industrially backward District with of infrastructure like electricity, transportation, and communication etc., hinder industrial development. The district with its natural beauty, evergreen hills, valleys, forests, waterfalls, game sanctuaries, wild flora and fauna, congenial and hospitable cool weather, etc. offers vast potential for forest and agro based industries and tourism development. Potential industries are less compared to other districts. About 97% of the total area of the district is comprised by rugged mountains and forests. There are strips of middle land (3%) in the western part of the district. Low land area is totally absent in the district more than 50% of the area of the district is covered by forest. Availability of land for Industries is very low. Hence the share of Idukki district in MSME Sector is very negligible compared other districts. 1.3 Potential sectors in Idukki district Idukki is generally perceived as a Spices district. Idukki is famous for its spices like Pepper, Cardamom, Ginger, etc. and most of those products are transported in raw form. Value addition is not done in here. So MSMES like spices processing have high potential as we consider in terms of raw material availability. Major potential New MSMEs are:- 1.Spices oils and Oleoresins 2.Curry powder unit 3.Dry packed cardamom 4.Pepper processing industries 5.Tea and Coffee There are some potential industries. Other than from spices, which are Building materials, Engineering units, readymade garments, Rubber based industries etc. 1.4 Potentials areas for service industry Tourism: A landlocked district, Idukki is one of the most nature rich areas of Kerala. As a tourist destination, Idukki offers diverse attractions like Wildlife sanctuaries, Hill stations Dams, Spice plantations tours, Mountain treks, Elephant rides etc. High ranges and wood valleys are girded by three main rivers-Periyar, Thalayar and Thodupuzhayar and their tributaries 3 CHAPTER 2 BACKGROUND The Industrial Potential Survey of Idukki district was undertaken as part of creating positive and significant impact in the MSME sector in the State.
