Foreign Technical Collaborations, Indian Industry, Manufacturing Sector, Technology Transfer, Production GrowthAbstract
This study examines the landscape of foreign technical collaborations (FTCs) in Indian industry during the financial years 2021–2023. Drawing on data from the Reserve Bank of India's biennial survey, the analysis highlights the predominance of the manufacturing sector, accounting for 78% of FTCs, with significant contributions from machinery, transport equipment, and chemical products. Japan, the USA, and Germany emerge as the leading sources of technology transfer. The study also explores the nature of technology transfers, payment modalities, and the impact on production growth, particularly in the motor vehicles sector. The findings provide insights into the dynamics of foreign collaborations and their implications for India's industrial growth
