Modi Gov't Announces $2.06 Incentive Scheme For IT Hardware Manufacturers
The Product Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme announced by the federal government in April 2020 aims to make India a global electronics hub.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's cabinet on Wednesday approved a $2.06 billion Production Linked Incentive Scheme 2.0 for firms that are in the business of manufacturing products like laptops, tablets, servers, and all-in-one PCs.
Under the PLI scheme, goods producers receive subsidies from the government after they register to manufacture their products in the South Asian nation.
From reduction in import duty to tax rebates, the government's subsidy, however, is linked to the number of units a company is manufacturing and selling.
Information Technology and Telecom Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw informed reporters about the decision after the cabinet meeting in New Delhi.
"For IT PLI, the budgetary outlay is INR 17,000 crore ($2.06 billion). The tenure of the program is 6 years," he said.
As per a government statement, the production of electronics products in India has seen exponential growth, with the industry registering an annual growth rate of 17 percent in the past eight years.
This year, manufacturing crossed a major milestone, breaching the $100 billion barrier. As of March, India had produced $105 billion worth of electronics products in the country.
The PLI scheme has played a huge part in giving a major fillip to electronics production in India.
