Thus, any plunge in demand for a particular segment adversely impacts the demand for other segments and leads to a decline in the overall market expansion. Prices of raw materials such as metal inputs have rapidly increased, hampering market expansion. The competitive environment in the market has forced the vendors to sell the products at low prices. This has deeply impacted the profitability margins of market players. The wire and spring products market obtains a high share from exports. Owing to this, the market is highly vulnerable to changes in intensification of other economies. Any decline in demand from other economies can affect exports as well as export-oriented sectors.
