Air-conditioning, refrigeration, ventilation and cooling is poised for a huge growth and is expected to attract significant foreign investments in the coming years. The budget for 2018-2019 has outlined this fact that the next big wave is certainly in the farm Sector. The big-ticket investment agenda of the government is certainly to double the farm income by 2022. India being an agrarian society the rise in farm income will play an important role in the rise of disposable income and there by influence the air-conditioning, refrigeration, ventilation and cold chain industry and it also remains strong on the focus area for the government.
