Three dimensional printing is slated to become the new normal by 2021 when the 3D printing industry in India is expected to cross USD 200 million according to estimates by Indian 3D Printing Network. The Indian 3D Printing Market currently pegged at about Rs 850 crore is growing at about 22% pa and set to become Rs 1500 crore by 2021.
