 The market for elevators in India is projected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate of over 8% between 2016 and 2021 with the size of the market forecast to cross $1.6 billion in 2020, according to research firm TechSci Research.

Swiss elevator manufacturer Schindler has begun production in its Pune plant last year.

Kone India, Johnson Lifts, etc, are the other major companies operating in India's elevators market.
