The major highlights of the budget 2022 is 35 % plus increase in the capital expenditure of central government which is likely create demands across sectors and particularly among manufacturing sector and industries as a whole. In her budget speech, finance minister has mentioned that electronics manufacturing has been growing at a rapid pace and custom duties rates are calibrated to facilitate domestic manufacturing of wearable & hearable devices, electronics smart devices and meters etc. 

With the increase in duty rates, items such as umbrella, imitation jewellery, loud speakers, headphone, earphone, solar cells, x-ray machines, parts of electronics goods are likely be costlier. One important news is about the highest GST collections for the month of January 2022, The gross GST collections for the month of January 2022 is Rs.140,986 Crore, which is highest since the inception of GST in 2017.  This shows the signs of the economic recovery and better business environment despite Omicron and spread of Corona virus in India. 

Another significant announcement in the budget 2022 is about Gati Shakti National Master Plan which is a transformative initiative for robust economic growth & sustainable development. More importantly, this is driven by seven engines identified by Govt. of India roads, railway, airports, ports, mass transport, waterways & logistics infrastructure. 

Gati shakti is a game changing initiative announced by Govt. of India. Under this plan, the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) envisages an average spend of Rs, 20 Trillion per year over the next five years. This will create demand for various types of industrial tools, hardware including air tools, bench tools, power tools, hand tools, measuring tools, construction equipment, safety tools & much more.  

As per the estimate made, Gati Shakti in its entirety will create demand worth Rs. 5000 Crore of only tools items annually. For the next five years, the consolidated demand for tools would cross Rs. 25,000 Crore (3.25 Billion USD) only from Government sponsored projects. 

Indian tools manufacturers include power tools, hand tools, air tools, bench tools and other industrial category tools highly consumed in Infrastructure projects that have limited domestic production capacity and therefore there would be larger dependence on import of tools.
