通力（印度）领导层称的缓慢恢复对电梯行业发展不利

据11月21日Hindu报道，通力（印度）公司总经理Amit Gossain表示，受到新冠肺炎疫情影响，印度的房地产业缓慢复苏，电梯行业也受到制约。“我们还没有回到新冠肺炎疫情前的水平，” Amit Gossain说，“目前的水平大概是原来的65-70％。房地产行业正在慢慢恢复并且进展缓慢。”。他补充道，由于房地产是电梯行业的主要客户，因此2020年对于电梯行业而言，将是负增长的一年。Amit Gossain说，通力正在减少2020年和2021年的资本支出，尽管支持金额“将在稍后决定”。不过，他听起来很乐观，他说：“我们确实认为房地产业的复苏速度将超过大多数人的预期。”关于印度作为研发中心的崛起，Amit Gossain说，目前印度的9个技术开发中心都全力支持“通力未来解决方案的开发”。

KONE INDIA LEADER: SLOW PANDEMIC RECOVERY HURTING VT

Amit Gossain, managing director of KONE India, says the nation's vertical-transportation (VT) industry is being hampered by the real estate industry's slow recovery from the pandemic, The Hindu reported on November 21. "We haven't come back to our pre-COVID-19 levels," Gossain said. "We are at about 65-70%. Real estate is taking its own time and going slow." He added that 2020 will be a year of negative growth for the VT industry, as real estate is a key client. Gossain said KONE is reducing capital expenditures for 2020 and 2021, though the amount "will be decided later." He sounded an optimistic note, however, saying, "we do think that the real estate industry will have a faster recovery than most people expect." Regarding India's emergence as a hub for R&D, Gossain said the country's nine technology-development centers support the "development of future KONE solutions."
