1995 marked the first investment into AM by the Indian industry. Almost 25 years have passed since and Indian industry has made advances including:

• Acceptance by Jewellery and Automotive industries for mould making & prototyping respectively.
• Increased Metal AM installations entering diverse applications like Aerospace, Space, Defence and Tooling
• Medical AM and Bio-printing companies
• A thriving startup ecosystem addressing various needs including software, digital manufacturing and system development.
• Ongoing projects at Academic & Research Institutes and Educational Curriculum.
• Many others, which have been captured in this report.

India is today only touching the tip of the Iceberg in adoption of this technology, however with the ingenuity of Indian industry and existing/upcoming government policies an exponential growth in this space is just around the corner.

We have put in our best efforts to honestly represent the Indian AM industry through this report and we are sure that this will become one of the benchmarks in the industry and become an important tool for the industry to take informed business decisions.
