India's Production Linked Incentive Scheme Spurs Over Rs 5 Trillion in Mobile Manufacturing

Published July 27, 2024

India's initiative to boost its domestic manufacturing sector through the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme has not only galvanized production but has also proven to be exceptionally fruitful for the mobile phone and component manufacturing industry. Statistics reveal that the sector has generated products valued at a staggering Rs 5.14 trillion under the auspices of this incentive-driven program. The PLI scheme, a brainchild of the government's strategic economic planning, is designed to propel domestic industries to higher echelons of output and technological prowess, potentially rivaling global manufacturing hubs.

Impact of PLI on India’s Tech Manufacturing

The PLI scheme's primary objective is to incentivize and amplify manufacturing within the nation’s borders. In pursuit of this goal, the scheme has successfully cultivated an environment conducive to production at scale. By financially rewarding companies that exceed minimum production thresholds, the initiative promotes a virtuous cycle of investment and output enhancement. The reported figures underscore the scheme's efficacy in invigorating the mobile phone manufacturing landscape, further solidifying India's status as an emerging powerhouse in tech production.
