MEMBERS TESTIMONIALS
“India’s Construction Equipment (CE) industry went through a challenging FY2019~20. In 2020, businesses across the world have been struggling to keep afloat due to the global economic slowdown, triggered by the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. As India went into a post COVID lockdown, the
Indian CE industry also slipped into a major slowdown.”

“2019 was certainly a very challenging year – a liquidity crisis following the IL&FS meltdown, coupled with a cyclical slowdown normal in a general election year, created a difficult environment for the CE Industry’s growth. In January 2020 when sales began to pick up and the CE industry felt that the business environment was returning to normal, the unprecedented impact of the biggest ever global crisis began unfolding. As the COVID-19 pandemic became a global health crisis at a lightning speed, it quickly turned into a global economic crisis as well, throwing all business plans to disarray. ”

Today, ICEMA is the voice of the CE Industry at various forums, including our line Ministries at the Central Government level. The various Panels constituted by ICEMA have addressed specific challenges faced by member companies and also facilitated the industry’s presence at various national & international conferences and exhibitions.
