The government’s immense dedication to boosting India’s electronic ecosystem has managed to garner a proposal of 1.1 lakh crore, with both domestic and international companies submitting applications to invest a huge amount, in fact, double the original target.
This initiative has the potential to result in an incremental production of approximately 10.3 lakh crore, following the final revision of the project.
Ashwini Vaishnaw, the Minister of Electronics and IT, stated that there are no special provisions for attracting investors from China when asked specifically about the investment deal with Chinese Companies.
In the meantime, such investment applications are dealt under PN3, that is, Pressure Note 3, which was established in April 2020.
The Minister stated that this initiative will position India as a global supplier. With this goal, Bharat will be able to serve the maximum manufacturing industries. A hub of giant companies, including Foxconn and Flex, has signed up for this scheme.
The current applicants, which are 249, can scale up this to 10.3 lakh crore with the production target of 4.6 lakh crore. The Minister added that almost 60% of the applicants are from MSMEs, which can make this initiative in the supply chain deeply rooted and exhaustive.
