Deepak reported to Ambassador Xu Feihong on the development and operation of SANY Group and SANY India. SANY India was established in 2002. Adhering to the development strategy of "In India, for India and Global", it has now become the second largest engineering machinery company in India, achieving localization of talents, products and manufacturing.

SANY has a complete range of products with reliable quality. It is popular in the Indian and South Asian markets and is exported to Africa, the Middle East and the United States. It currently has a local management team and a complete sales service network in India. It focuses on talent training and research and development, maintains good relations with financial institutions and local governments, and its competitiveness continues to rise. Sales have increased 22 times in the past 9 years. It is full of confidence in the next stage of business development.

Deepak introduced that SANY India is currently implementing the second phase expansion project of the Chakan headquarters industrial park, including production workshops, parts warehouses and remanufacturing plants, which will be completed and put into operation this year. By then, SANY India's localized manufacturing capacity will be increased to 15,000 units per year, and it will become the largest parts storage and distribution center in India's engineering machinery industry.

At the same time, SANY India is also becoming an important regional platform for the globalization of SANY Group, giving full play to India's geographical advantages and providing Indian localized products, personnel training and services to Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, Africa and other countries and regions.

In the future, SANY will build a large-scale R&D, manufacturing and marketing comprehensive Indian local enterprise with an annual sales of 10 billion US dollars in India, forming three major business segments: engineering heavy equipment, wind power energy equipment and photovoltaic energy equipment.

Deepak expressed his gratitude to the Chinese Embassy and Consulate General in India for their long-term care and assistance to Sany's development in India, and especially thanked Ambassador Xu Feihong for choosing Sany India as the first Chinese-funded enterprise in India to be inspected after his arrival.

Ambassador Xu Feihong said that this was his first time to visit Sany Group in person, and seeing is believing. He sincerely congratulated Sany on its development and achievements, and highly affirmed Sany's development in India. Ambassador Xu Feihong pointed out that there are two elements for Chinese companies to invest and operate overseas: first, they must be consistent with the development strategy of the country where they are located; second, they must operate and manufacture locally. Chinese companies overseas must create value and make contributions to the local society, and assume the responsibility of a bridge for the friendly development between China and India.

During the symposium, the Sany India executive team answered questions of concern to the leaders of the Chinese Embassy and Consulate in India.
