Hamid Ansari, has said that the Indian manufacturing needs to improve dramatically in terms of productivity and efficiency to compete in a globalized market. He was addressing the gathering after giving away the AIMA - JRD Tata Corporate Leadership Award to Mr N. Chandrasekaran, Chairman of Tata Sons Ltd., here yesterday. 

The Vice President said that test before our companies is to develop business capabilities that equip them to compete at the top of the value chain. For profitable growth, India has to strive for a premium that will accrue only if one targets products that need high quality design, engineering and manufacturing, he added. 

The Vice President said that the future growth of companies will be in being able to create futuristic business scenarios and engineering disruptions rather than coping with its aftermath. Earlier, the Vice President mentioned the inherent weaknesses of the corporate sector including risk aversion, debt-addiction and low R&D spending.
