Make in India Marks 12 Years with Mixed Growth and Increased Global Focus
The 'Make in India' initiative, launched in 2014, marks 12 years with mixed outcomes. While government incentive schemes like Production Linked Incentives have driven significant investments, exports, and job creation, broader manufacturing growth and global market share gains remain limited. Officials including PM Modi and Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal highlight increased confidence, foreign direct investment, and sectoral transformation. Industry bodies emphasize a shift toward deeper manufacturing capabilities, supply chain development, and global competitiveness as the program evolves.
