Make in India Campaign: An Assessment of its Likely Economic Impact

Journal Title: MANTHAN: Journal of Commerce and Management - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

India’s growth performance has been diverse yet fascinating over a period of time. While agriculture and manufacturing were the dominant sectors during the pre-industrialisation and industrialisation period respectively, more recently, the services sector has emerged as the most important sector in terms of its contribution to GDP. The growing demands of service sector and its importance in the economy has led to a concern about the situation of India’s manufacturing sector. This study analyses the ‘Make in India’ initiative of the present government launched in September 2014, with the twin objectives of developing India as hub of business and manufacturing and generating massive employment opportunities for India’s teeming young population. The analysis indicates that Indian economy is gaining momentum slowly, and growth estimates are in line with projections made. India also has the best prospects for the growth opportunities in coming decade. Since this concept is new, it will take some years before analysts can effectively measure the success of this campaign.
