@gd_raja Agreed, it's 50% of Petrol Usage, not overall, but still a significant amount and the technology is ready to deploy quickly compared to other uses/consumption requirements.
If the government in India was serious about the switch to EV's, that subsidy for electric scooters would be much more aggressive, ICE Scooters in India still continue to consume between 50 and 70% of all Petrol in India.
The subsidy starts paying back in less than a decade.
Govt wakes up to importance of EVs after the crisis hits.
We consume roughly 1 mb/d of petrol. Assume 100% of the cars starting now are EVs. Guess how much will petrol consumption come down by? Not more than 10%. That is <2% of total crude oil consumption.
That is why you need plan for all this well in advance. Like China did. Not lock the barn after the horse has not just bolted, it has left the city.
Oil for subsidized for far longer and to a much higher quantum, we're seeing a premature reduction of subsidy to let market forces do it's work.
But the market forces are going to be much slower than required.
@jauntalha If the design belongs to the customers, it's expected.
The main purpose is to look for places where the cost can be reduced through the design process not by negotiation.
A lot of companies took the easy route and started negotiating on the quoted margins instead.
@maahirpanchal I've had this problem before, SLDPRT and SLDASM links sometimes get lost during transfers to other software. Autodesk tries their best, but all the large contract manufacturing shops are expected to have major software, which is unrealistic. We wait for the age of FOSS in CAD.
@VishakhRanotra Nope, Windows only. The software itself is a good UI/UX on Calculix, which is more Command Line/script based.
We've used fusion360 simulations and you hit a upper limit on capabilities very quickly for advanced products.
@ivishaltejwani Most of the made in India ovens we buy also have quite bad PI Control of the temperature. Gotten much better over the past couple of years though.
There have been multiple attempts to break through and create indigenous tools:

Of all the things in Indian manufacturing, this feels like the easiest to solve with capital, the talent is available.
India is the world's second-largest market for Dassault CATIA and Siemens NX. Every AMCA design, every Navy warship takes shape in French and German software.
We debate hardware indigenisation endlessly. The industrial software question barely exists.
