NITI Aayog Calls for Policy Support to Boost India's Telecom Equipment Sector Growth
India's telecom and network equipment sector shows strong growth potential but faces challenges due to heavy import dependence, especially from China, for critical components like 4G and 5G technology. A NITI Aayog report highlights the need for urgent policy support to boost domestic manufacturing and exports, aiming to double the sector's GDP share and achieve up to USD 1 trillion in exports by 2030. The sector's reliance on global supply chains and higher fiscal costs compared to international peers underscores the urgency for targeted interventions to meet National Telecom Policy 2025 goals.
