Make in India Marks 12 Years with Mixed Progress in Manufacturing and Exports
The 'Make in India' initiative, launched in 2014, marks 12 years with mixed outcomes. While government incentives like Production Linked Incentive schemes have driven significant investments, production, 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, expanded manufacturing capacity, and a shift toward global competitiveness. Industry bodies emphasize the need for deeper domestic supply chains and technology development to sustain growth and global integration.
