WHAT IS GLOBALIZATION???????

Globalization has many meanings depending on the context and on the person who is talking
about. Guy Brainbant: says that the process of globalization not only includes opening up of
world trade, development of advanced means of communication, internationalization of financial
markets, growing importance of MNC’s, population migrations and more generally increased
mobility of persons, goods, capital, data and ideas but also infections, diseases and pollution. The
term globalization refers to the integration of economies of the world through uninhibited trade
and financial flows, as also through mutual exchange of technology and knowledge. Ideally, it
also contains free inter-country movement of labour. In context to India, this implies opening up
the economy to foreign direct investment by providing facilities to foreign companies to invest in
different fields of economic activity in India, removing constraints and obstacles to the entry of
MNCs in India, allowing Indian companies to enter into foreign collaborations and also
encouraging them to set up joint ventures abroad; carrying out massive import liberalization
programs by switching over from quantitative restrictions to tariffs and import duties, therefore
globalization has been identified with the policy reforms of 1991 in India.

IMPACT OF GLOBALIZATION ON INDIA

Indian economy was in deep crisis in July 1991, when foreign currency reserves had plummeted
to almost $1 billion; Inflation had roared to an annual rate of 17 percent; fiscal deficit was very
high and had become unsustainable; foreign investors and NRIs had lost confidence in Indian
Economy. Capital was flying out of the country and we were close to defaulting on loans. Along
with these bottlenecks at home, many unforeseeable changes swept the economies of nations in
Western and Eastern Europe, South East Asia, Latin America and elsewhere, around the same
time. These were the economic compulsions at home and abroad that called for a complete
overhauling of our economic policies and programs.

India opened up the economy in the early nineties following a major crisis that led by a foreign
exchange crunch that dragged the economy close to defaulting on loans. The response was a slew
of Domestic and external sector policy measures partly prompted by the immediate needs and
partly by the demand of the multilateral organisations. The new policy regime radically pushed
forward in favour of amore open and market oriented economy.
Major measures initiated as a part of the liberalisation and globalisation strategy in the early
nineties included scrapping of the industrial licensing regime, reduction in the number of areas
reserved for the public sector, amendment of the monopolies and the restrictive trade practices
act, start of the privatisation programme, reduction in tariff rates and change over to market
determined exchange rates.

Over the years there has been a steady liberalisation of the current account transactions, more
and more sectors opened up for foreign direct investments and portfolio investments facilitating
entry of foreign investors in telecom, roads, ports, airports, insurance and other major sectors.

The Indian tariff rates reduced sharply over the decade from a weighted average of 72.5% in
1991-92 to 24.6 in 1996-97.Though tariff rates went up slowly in the late nineties it touched
35.1% in 2001-02. India is committed to reduced tariff rates. Peak tariff rates are to be reduced to
be reduced to the minimum with a peak rate of 20%, in another 2 years most non-tariff barriers
have been dismantled by march 2002, including almost all quantitative restrictions.

INDIA BECOME GLOBAL

The implications of globalization for a national economy are many. Globalization has intensified
interdependence and competition between economies in the world market. These economic
reforms have yielded the following significant benefits: Globalization in India had a favorable
impact on the overall growth rate of the economy. This is major improvement given that India’s
growth rate in the 1970’s was very low at 3% and GDP growth in countries like Brazil,
Indonesia, Korea, and Mexico was more than twice that of India. Though India’s average annual
growth rate almost doubled in the eighties to 5.9%, it was still lower than the growth rate in
China, Korea and Indonesia. The pick up in GDP growth has helped improve India’s global
position. Consequently India’s position in the global economy has improved from the 8th position
in 1991 to 4th place in 2001; when GDP is calculated on a purchasing power parity basis. During
1991-92 the first year of Rao’s reforms program, The Indian economy grew by 0.9%only.
However the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth accelerated to 5.3 % in 1992-93, and 6.2%
1993- 94. A growth rate of above 8% was an achievement by the Indian economy during the year
2003-04.
India's Export and Import in the year 2001-02 was to the extent of 32,572 and 38,362 million
respectively. Many Indian companies have started becoming respectable players in the
International scene. Agriculture exports account for about 13 to 18% of total annual of annual
export of the country. In 2000-01 Agricultural products valued at more than US $ 6million were
exported from the country 23% of which was contributed by the marine products alone. Marine
products in recent years have emerged as the single largest contributor to the total agricultural
export from the country accounting for over one fifth of the total agricultural exports. Cereals
(mostly basmati rice and non-basmati rice), oil seeds, tea and coffee are the other prominent
products each of which accounts fro nearly 5 to 10% of the countries total agricultural exports.

EXPORT

Export in itself is a very wide concept and lot of preparations is required by an exporter before
starting an export business. A key success factor in starting any export company is clear
understanding and detail knowledge of products to be exported. In order to be a successful in
exporting one must fully research its foreign market rather than try to tackle every market at
once. The exporter should approach a market on a priority basis. Overseas design and product
must be studies properly and considered carefully. Because there are specific laws dealing with
International trade and foreign business, it is imperative that you familiarize yourself with state,
federal, and international laws before starting your export business. Price is also an important
factor. So, before starting an export business an exporter must considered the price offered to the
buyers. As the selling price depends on sourcing price, try to avoid unnecessary middlemen who
only add cost but no value. It helps a lot on cutting the transaction cost and improving the quality
of the final products. Exporting a product is a profitable method that helps to expand the business
and reduces the dependence in the local market. It also provides new ideas, management
practices, marketing techniques, and ways of competing, which is not possible in the domestic
market. Even as an owner of a domestic market, an individual businessman should think about
exporting. Research shows that, on average, exporting companies are more profitable than their
non-exporting counterparts.

MAINLY TWO DUTIES ARE IMPOSED ON EXPORT

CUSTOM DUTY
Tax levied on imports (and, sometimes, on exports) by the customs authorities of a country to
raise state revenue, and/or to protect domestic industries from more efficient or predatory
competitors from abroad. Also called tariff, duty is based generally on
the value of goods (calledad valorem duty) or upon the weight, dimensions, or some
other criteria of the item (such as the size of the engine, in case of automobiles).

EXCISE DUTY

All goods that are produced or manufactured in india and are send to some other country for
export then on that goods excise duty is imposed.

WHY NEED TO EXPORT

There are many good reasons for exporting:

 The first and the primary reason for export is to earn foreign exchange. The foreign
exchange not only brings profit for the exporter but also improves the economic
condition of the country.

 Secondly, companies that export their goods are believed to be more reliable than their
counterpart domestic companies assuming that exporting company has survive the test in
meeting international standards.

 Thirdly, free exchange of ideas and cultural knowledge opens up immense business and
trade opportunities for a company.

 Fourthly, as one starts visiting customers to sell one’s goods, he has an opportunity to
start exploring for newer customers, state-of-the-art machines and vendors in foreign
lands.

 Fifthly, by exporting goods, an exporter also becomes safe from offset lack of demand for
seasonal products.

 Lastly, international trade keeps an exporter more competitive and less vulnerable to the
market as the exporter may have a business boom in one sector while simultaneously
witnessing a bust in a different sector.
There are several methods to evaluate the export potential of a company

 The most common method is to examine the success of a product in domestic market. It
is believed that if the products has survived in the domestic market, there is a good
chance that it will also be successful in international market, at least those where similar
needs and conditions exist.

 One should also evaluate the unique features of a product. If those features are hard to
duplicate abroad, then it is likely that you will be successful overseas. A unique product
may have little competition and demand for it might be quite high.

 Once a businessman decides to sell his products, the next step is to developing a proper
export plan. While planning an export strategy, it is always better to develop a simple,
practical and flexible export plan for profitable and sustainable export business. As the
planners learn more about exporting and company's competitive position, the export plan
will become more detailed and complete.

OBJECTIVE
The main objective of a typical export plan is to:
 Identifies what you want to achieve from exporting.
 Lists what activities you need to undertake to achieve those objectives.
 Includes mechanisms for reviewing and measuring progress.
 Helps you remain focused on your goals.

DETERMINING EXPORT PRICING

Export Pricing can be determine by the following factors:
 Range of products offered.
 Prompt deliveries and continuity in supply.
 After-sales service in products like machine tools, consumer durables.
 Product differentiation and brand image.
 Frequency of purchase.
 Presumed relationship between quality and price.
  Specialty value goods and gift items.
 Credit offered.
 Preference or prejudice for products originating from a particular source.
 Aggressive marketing and sales promotion.
 Prompt acceptance and settlement of claims.
 Unique value goods and gift items.
LETTER OF CREDIT
Letters of credit are often used in international transactions to ensure that payment will be
received. Due to the nature of international dealings including factors such as distance, differing
laws in each country and difficulty in knowing each party personally, the use of letters of credit
has become a very important aspect of international trade. The bank also acts on behalf of the
buyer (holder of letter of credit) by ensuring that the supplier will not be paid until the bank
receives a confirmation that the goods have been shipped.

Letter of Credit is a payment term generally used for international sales transactions. It is
basically a mechanism, which allows importers/buyers to offer secure terms of payment to
exporters/sellers in which a bank (or more than one bank) gets involved. The technical term for
Letter of credit is 'Documentary Credit'. At the very outset one must understand is that Letters of
credit deal in documents, not goods. The idea in an international trade transaction is to shift the
risk from the actual buyer to a bank. Thus a LC (as it is commonly referred to) is a payment
undertaking given by a bank to the seller and is issued on behalf of the applicant i.e. the buyer.
The Buyer is the Applicant and the Seller is the Beneficiary. The Bank that issues the LC is
referred to as the Issuing Bank which is generally in the country of the Buyer. The Bank that
Advises the LC to the Seller is called the Advising Bank which is generally in the country of the
Seller.
The specified bank makes the payment upon the successful presentation of the required
documents by the seller within the specified time frame. Note that the Bank scrutinizes the
'documents' and not the 'goods' for making payment. Thus the process works both in favor of
both the buyer and the seller. The Seller gets assured that if documents are presented on time and
in the way that they have been requested on the LC the payment will be made and Buyer on the
other hand is assured that the bank will thoroughly examine these presented documents and
ensure that they meet the terms and conditions stipulated in the LC.

EFFECT OF GLOBALIZATION ON INDIA’S EXPORT SECTOR

No doubt that in the age of globalization and liberalizations, Export has became of the most
lucrative business in India. Government of India is also supporting exporters through various
incentives and schemes to promote Indian export for meeting the much needed requirements for
importing modern technology and adopting new technology from MNCs through Joint ventures
and collaboration.

Export Sector of Indian Economy has improved immensely over the years and has earned US
$ 125 billion in the current fiscal year. The goods exported from India mainly include wide
variety of agricultural products, chemicals, jewelery, garments, leather goods and so on.

India has developed business relations with a number of foreign countries like the member
countries of SAARC, some Eastern European countries as well as African countries, Members of
EU. The impressive list of countries includes:

• Russia
 • UAE

• USA

• Hong Kong

• UK

• Japan

• Germany

• Singapore

• Belgium

• Malaysia

• Netherlands

• Bangladesh

• Italy

• Thailand

• France

• Australia

• Belgium

The export sector of Indian economy has always delineated impressive growth in all the areas of
export, like the chemical industry in the financial year 2005-06 recorded US $ 12677.21million
from expots, whereas the export earning from gems and jewelery was US $ 13705.44million in
the same fiscal. The engineering industry has been performing consistently over the years in the
arena of exports as it secured the second position in terms of the earnings from exports in 2004-
05, amounting to US $ 10516.45million, which increased to US $ 14587.37million in the next
fiscal. The performance of textile industry has fluctuated a little as the earning of the textile
industry from exports in the financial year 2004-05 was US $ 12204.71million which came down
to US $ 12017.46 million in 2005-06.

USA has turned out to be the most significant export partner of India and the export sector of
Indian economy earned approximately US $ 13265.60 million in 2006-07. UAE has stood
second only to USA as UAE contributed 9.7 out of the total Indian earnings from exports in
2006-07. UK and China has exchanged their positions in the current year as China's share among
the exports figure in India in 2006-07 has improved by 6.3 % in comparison to 2005-06. In 2004-
05 Belgium and Italy contributed substantially to the earnings from exports, with a contribution
of US $ 2442.09 million and US $ 2160.83 million respectively.

The major export products of India hail from the following divisions within the export sector
of Indian economy like:

• Engineering Goods

• Agricultural Products

• Chemicals

• Marine Products

• Petroleum products

• Leather Goods

• Textiles

• Plantations

Among the agricultural exports of India include Indian rice, raw cotton, cashew, sugar, tobacco,
spices, coffee, wheat and tea have become very popular in the international market on account of
their variety and excellent quality. The engineering industry serves to export electronic goods ,
transport equipments, iron and steel, and various machineries and the textile industry is engaged
in the export of ready made garments, jute, cotton yarn, carpets, woolen yarn, coir, artificial
fabrics and so on. Other significant export products include paints, rubber, iron ore, plastic,
pharmaceuticals etc.
The export barriers in India have been hampering Indian exports to a great extent and most of
such barriers have been announced by the European Union regarding certification requirements,
application of pesticides, dumping of waste products. But the most significant export barrier
faced by the Indian exporters is red tapism which is mostly accompanied by corruption.
However, the government of India has considered plans to liberate the Indian exporters from the
cumbersome paper works and simplify the required procedures.

The export sector of Indian economy made comprehensive progress over the last decade. The
exponential growth of the export sector of Indian economy can be attributed to the liberal
Government of India economic policy. Indian exports have an ambitious target of US 160 billion
in 2007-08. The achievement came to the Indian exports in the last fiscal despite the odds against
the exports, minimizing the gains. In the first two months of 2007-08 exports grew by 20.3%,
which was a little lower than the previous year over the same period a year ago.

The Government of India latest export policy for the exporters will help in stabilizing the export
growth levels attained in the 1st quarter of 2007-2008. Ores and minerals exports grew
moderately to 12.9% against 37.4% in 2005-06. Similar trend was also observed in the exports of
manufacturing sector. The exports of manufactured goods from India grew moderately by 15%
in the first quarter of 2007-2008 as compared to 21.2% in the last fiscal year. High value
commodities like engineering goods and rice registered very high growth rate in the 1st quarter
of this fiscal against the same period last year. The overall exports suggests that the Indian
exports grew considerably across all major exporting destinations. The Indian exports to
Pakistan, UAE and Italy showed remarkable growth in the first quarter of the current fiscal year.

The astronomical growth of the Indian export sector was led by the following industry -

• Information Technology

• Information Technology Enabled Services

• Telecommunications hardware

• Electronics and hardware

 • Pharmaceutical and biotechnology products

• Consumer durables

• Textiles

• Construction machinery

• Power equipment

• Food grains

• Iron and steel

• Chemicals and fertilizers

The robust overall growth of export sector of Indian economy led to secondary growth of the
following economic parameters -

• India's economy grew at 9.3% in quarter April-June and it was driven by manufacturing,
construction and services sector and agriculture sector

• GDP factor for the first quarter of 2007-08 was at Rs 7,23,132 crore, registering a growth
rate of 9.3% over the corresponding quarter of previous year

• Exports grew by 18.11% during the 1st quarter of 2007-2008 and the imports shoot up by
34.30% during the same period

• India's FOREX reserves (excluding Gold and SDRs) stood at $219.75 billion at the end
of July ' 07

• The annual inflation rate was 4.45% for the week ended July 28, 2007

• India's Balance of Payments is expected to remain comfortable

• Merchandise Exports recorded strong growth

• According to reports, productivity growth rate of Indian economy is estimated to be

around 8% and above until 2020
At this stupendous growth of the export sector of Indian economy, it is expected that India will
become the second largest economy in the world after China.

Exporting items from India is as profitable as importing things to India. You can easily import
the traditional art and crafts of the country, of which you will find great variety and number.
These items are in great demand in the western countries and good quality products sell for really
high prices. You can also export natural products like silk, flax seeds and jute fiber. These are
products that are already exported by India in large quantities.

India is a large exporter of aluminum and aluminum ore. Since aluminum takes a lot of
electricity to extract, India mainly exports the ore to other countries where power is cheaper.
Power is not abundant in India and there is a definite deficit in that area.

As mentioned earlier, India is a large exporter of handicraft and some clothing items also fall
within this category. India is known for providing some of the best embroidery works in the
world. Indian embroidery has various styles that are unique to the country and cannot be found
anywhere else. That is why they are prized highly by fashion designers all over the world. There
are also other traditional textiles and clothing that India exports in large quantities.

Merchandise exports have been increasing quite rapidly in recent years .Between 2001-02 and
2007-08 manufactured exports have increased at the compound annual rate of growth (CARG) of
20%. But the share of manufactured goods in total exports has declined from 73.6% in 1991-92
to 63.6% in 2007-08.

The growth in exports has been interpreted as a success of the reforms process since 1991.

But as Table shows, more than 50% of the growth of exports during 1991-92 to 2007-08 has
been accounted for by engineering goods (39.1%) and chemicals and related products (15.2%).
Again within these two sectors, the products for which exports have been expanding rapidly are
primary & semi-finished iron & steel (CARG 26.88% between 1991-92 and 2007-08), Iron &
steel bar/rods (20.85%), Machinery & instruments (18.39%), Drugs, pharmaceuticals & fine
chemicals (16.45%) etc .

These are precisely the industries which were created and developed in the pre-reforms period
through active state intervention. Consider, for example drugs & pharmaceuticals. This industry
is considered to be one of the success stories of independent India. A conscious industrial policy
worked behind the development of the pharmaceutical industry in India. Among the instruments
used were regulation of foreign capital, promotion of indigenous enterprises, patent reforms,
public investments in manufacturing and R&D.

2008-09 and . the export sector in india has continuously grown from 2004-05 to 2008-09. In
2004-05 the export was 83.5 USD billion dollar, it increased to 103.4 in 2005-06 and then it
increased to126.3USD dollar in 2006-07. In the year 2007-08 and 2008-09 also the export sector
in india is growing. There was a sharp rise in export from the year 2007-08 to 2008-09.

CONCLUSION

The implications of globalisation and its effect on india’s export sector for a national economy
are many. Globalisation has intensified interdependence and competition between economies in
the world market. This is reflected in Interdependence in regard to trading in goods and services
and in movement of capital. As a result domestic economic developments are not determined
entirely by domestic market and domestic market conditions. Rather, they are influenced by both
domestic and international trading and economic conditions of both the country. It is thus clear
that a globalising economy, while formulating and evaluating its domestic policy cannot afford

The future in very challenging for India’s export sector. Indian exporters managed to battle the
global economic crisis with aplomb to close the 2009-10 fiscal with shipments worth $176.5
billion, a bare 4.7% lower than the previous year. Though all exports have grown strongly in
recent months, many sectors are still in the red. During the recession time India’s export sector
fall sharply but still there are very untapped market by the export sector which they should look
upon for the future of export sector. Depending on one market will not yield them anything. The
Indian exporter should exposed to different markets so that what happen during economic crisis
will not happen in future.
