DataQuest|November 2024
Ten years after its launch, the “Make in India” initiative has significantly transformed India’s manufacturing landscape. By attracting foreign investments, fostering domestic innovation, and promoting policy reforms, the initiative has propelled India’s economic growth and positioned the country as a global manufacturing hub. However, to sustain this momentum, India must address challenges such as labour rights, environmental impact, and regional disparities.

Launched on September 25, 2014, the 'Make in India' initiative has reached its tenth anniversary, marking a significant milestone in India's journey to become a global manufacturing hub.

Projections suggest India's economy will expand by 6-7.1% annually between 2024 and 2026, positioning it to become the third-largest economy by 2030, with a projected GDP of $7.3 trillion.
