🌍 Celebrating a Decade of Make in India: A Global Manufacturing Milestone 🌍 As we mark 10 years of Make in India, it’s inspiring to see how India has emerged as a global manufacturing force. Since 2014, this initiative has redefined our industrial landscape—attracting $667 billion in FDI and creating a solid foundation for growth across sectors like automotive, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and textiles. The Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme alone has sparked over ₹71.32 lakh crore in investments, boosted exports, and created 850,000+ jobs. 🚀 From policy advances like the National Single Window System to infrastructure projects like PM Gati Shakti, India is setting new standards for ease of doing business and connectivity, helping Indian industries gain a competitive edge globally. As India looks toward Viksit Bharat 2047, the journey is only beginning. The vision is set on a future that’s even more innovative, sustainable, and self-reliant—powered by Indian talent, cutting-edge technology, and strengthened global partnerships. A huge thank you goes out to everyone who has contributed to this transformative journey so far. Together, let’s continue elevating India as a global powerhouse, making in India for the world! 🌏 #MakeInIndia #Manufacturing #Innovation #GlobalExpansion #India2030 #InnovationInsights Manish Khurana https://lnkd.in/dD8cKTtz
