What's the message you want's to convey?
Or it's just another thread for chest thumping?
That India is
4th biggest producer of steel and
6th biggest producer of motor vehicles in world.
The developing countries have made their way more and more in the top 10 of global manufacturing countries. While you might expect China on the first spot, the United States as being the world's biggest economy is still the largest manufacturing producer. Brazil has advanced up to the sixth place.
India just entered the top 10 in 2010 and Russia especially made a big jump from place 12 in 2000 to 11 in 2010.

Even though the country had only 1.8 per cent share in the world manufacturing between 2000 and 2010,
India occupies the 9th position among the global leading manufacturing countries.
"Competitiveness of Indian manufactured goods in the global markets has significantly improved," Chief Statistician of the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) Shyam Upadhyaya said while releasing the report.
Higher output growth rates have allowed the Indian industry to improve major performance indicators such as labour productivity, he said. The country has made significant progress in the use of energy for industrial production.
"This is borne out of the fact that in the last 10-years, India's manufacturing output grew by 7 per cent average per annum while industrial energy consumption grew at much lower rate of 3.6 per cent," Upadhyaya said.
The US tops the list of 10-top industrial producers followed by China, Japan and Germany. Brazil was at the bottom of the list. "Ranks are not stable due to close competition of emerging economies. In the coming years, Russia, Mexico and Spain might increase their share and occupy higher position," he said.
Industrialised countries account for more than two-third of the world industrial output, but the share of developing countries is rising from 20 per cent in 2000 to 32.1 per cent in 2010.
As per the report, in the last decade, share of major industrialised countries such as the US, Japan and Germany in the world manufacturing has fallen. The report said manufacturing output of three developing countries, China, Brazil and India, has grown by almost 10 per cent on an average in the last decade.
