The foundry industry made rapid progress in the post-independence years. This could be directly related to the industrialization programme launched through India's five-year plans. Successive plans were aimed at expanding and diversifying India's manufacturing base. There were massive outlays made to develop infrastructural facilities and rapidly expand engineering industries. This naturally triggered the growth of Indian foundry industry which graduated into the manufacture of complex and sophisticated castings required by power, iron and steel, fertilizer, chemical and a host of other industries. With its traditional skills, reinforced by modern technology, the industry has developed as a blend of the old and the new. It is also estimated that there exists approximately 4500 casting units in India, out of which 85% can be classified as small-scale units & 10% as medium & 5% as large-scale units. The foundry industry has a turnover of approximately USD 20 billion, of which the export component valued at approximately USD 3.54 billion. It is projected that the Indian casting industry is expected to be valued at USD 25 billion by 2025.
