The country has embarked on this journey under various initiatives launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his administration over the past ten years.

Creating Millions Of New Jobs

India has seen significant growth in areas such as local manufacturing, new semiconductor plants, AI, 5G, startups, innovation, and PLI schemes for multiple sectors, all while upskilling the workforce and creating millions of new jobs.

The PLI scheme will triple the manufacturing sector, increasing its market size from $459 billion in FY24 to $1.66 trillion. This growth rate exceeds the average annual increase of $175 billion over the last decade. A report by DSP Mutual Fund projects that the manufacturing sector’s contribution to GDP will rise from 14 percent in FY24 to 21 percent by FY34, driven by lower logistics costs and improved infrastructure. Infrastructure investments will increase from 33 percent of GDP in FY24 to 36 percent by FY29.

Electronics manufacturing

Electronics manufacturing alone has created more than 1.2 million new jobs and has surpassed $100 billion. India’s electronic manufacturing will reach $250 billion within the next five years.

The PLI schemes for 14 sectors are set to attract investments worth Rs 3 lakh crore to Rs 4 lakh crore in the coming years.
