Introduction
This scheme is a flagship programme of the Government of India launched in March 2020. The scheme aims to encourage domestic manufacturing and reduce India's dependence on imports, particularly from China. The scheme provides financial incentives to eligible companies for increasing their production in identified sectors.
As clear by the name, PLI scheme is an initiative that provides incentives to domestic industries to boost local production. When that happens, specifically tailored products emerge that satisfy a selected niche of target audience. Domestic businesses also help in cutting down import bills. As per the PLI scheme, the government encourages domestic companies and establishments to set up or expand on manufacturing units to increase production, to which the government provides incentives on incremental sales. Under the PLI Scheme, eligible companies will receive financial incentives based on their incremental sales or exports over a period of five years.
