Reconfiguring Global Supply Network</h3> Many nations and businesses are actively looking for raw materials, intermediate goods, and finished products from sources other than China. This change is especially noticeable in important industries like electronics, drugs, clothing, and autos. <br/><br/> Consider this example; India's electronics exports attained $20 billion in 2023 as an outcome of big businesses like Apple expanding their manufacturing operations there. India's reputation as the "pharmacy of the world" was cemented in 2022 when it exported pharmaceutical products valued at $25.39 billion, largely because of its vast capabilities in the manufacturing of generic drugs. With a $223 billion market capitalization, the textile sector is expanding along with global supply chains, making India a desirable destination for textiles because of its strong manufacturing capabilities and affordable prices. <br/><br/> Additionally, the automotive with seen improvements in the production of electric vehicles, the sector produced over 4.5 million vehicles in 2022, strengthening India's position in the global auto industry. This diversification is an opportunity for India to strengthen its position in international supply chains and a calculated risk management tactic, which will promote stability and economic growth. <br/><br/> <h3 style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: normal;">2. Leveraging Trade Agreement</h3> India can also improve its access to the global market by leveraging its current trade agreements and strategic partnerships with nations like the US, Japan, Australia, and the EU. <br/><br/> <h3 style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: normal;">3. Investment Destination</h3> China’s economic slump has also reduced its attractiveness as an investment destination for foreign capital. India can capitalize on this window by offering a stable and conducive business environment, easing regulatory hurdles, providing tax incentives, and facilitating land acquisition and labor reforms. </p> <h2 style="font-size:18px";>Conclusion</h2> <p style="color:black;"> He Kang, a former deputy head of the National Bureau of Statistics, claims that China's property market has enough empty homes to house three billion people.<br/><br/> <ul> <li style="color:black;">That is approximately ten times the population of the United States.</li> <li style="color:black;"> 15 times the population of Western Europe.</li> <li style="color:black;">2.14 times the population of India.</li> <li style="color:black;"> 140 times the population of Beijing, to put things into perspective.</li> </ul> Whether China can overcome this setback, even with government intervention, is the true question. Beijing cannot buy every empty house in the nation, and the government does not have limitless funds. Some developers might succeed, while others might not get support. </p> </div>
