Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of India's current policies and programs to achieve the goal of "Make in India for the World," with emphasis on the electronics manufacturing industry. It analyzes three specific questions: (i) the efficacy of current measures in raising production and exports of electronics manufacturing; (ii) in light of the ongoing geo-political tensions, can India build a competitive electronics manufacturing industry while at the same time trying to decouple its economy from China? and (iii) ways the current policy environment can be fine-tuned to achieve the stated goal. A key part of this exercise has been to gauge the electronics’ manufacturing ecosystem in India, which involved wide ranging consultations with key government departments including MeitY, NITI Aayog, Electronics Sector Skills Council of India, as well as with the important private sector players. The field-based surveys have been complemented with detail analysis of data, including HS (Harmonised System) production classification using India’s tariff lines (8-digit codes), from the Export-Import Data Bank of Department of Commerce, Government of India.
