INTRODUCTION
The Make in India initiative was launched by Prime
Minister in September 2014 as part of a wider set
of nation-building initiatives. Devised to transform
India into a global design and manufacturing hub,
Make in India was a timely response to a critical
situation. By 2013, the much-hyped emerging
markets bubble had burst, and India’s growth rate
had fallen to its lowest level in a decade. The
promise of the BRICS Nations (Brazil, Russia,
India, China and South Africa) had faded, and
India was tagged as one of the so-called ‘Fragile
Five’. Global investors debated whether the world’s
largest democracy was a risk or an opportunity.
India’s 1.2 billion citizens questioned whether India
was too big to succeed or too big to fail. India was
on the brink of severe economic failure,
desperately in need of a big push. The government
wants to revive the lagging manufacturing sector and
spur the growth of the economy. The GOI also
intends to encourage businesses from abroad into
investing in the country and also manufacture here,
by improving the country’s ‘Ease of Doing Business’
index. The long-term vision is to gradually develop
India into a global manufacturing hub, and also boost
employment opportunities in the country.
MAKE IN INDIA LOGO
The Make in India logo is a visual representation of the
initiative, and it consists of three elements: a lion, the
Indian tricolour, and the gear. The lion symbolises
strength and resilience, embodying the spirit of the
initiative and the country. The Indian tricolour is a
reminder of the nation’s pride and ambitions, while the
gear reflects India’s industrial advancement. The logo
has been designed to be both timeless and
contemporary, and it is instantly recognisable as a
symbol of the Make in India initiative. With its
combination of elements, the logo is a powerful visual
representation of the progress and potential of the
nation. It effectively portrays the vision of the mission
and its commitment to driving India’s economic growth
and development. The Government of India owns the
“Make in India” logo, which is protected by copyright. It
is available for use by organisations and companies
associated with the “Make in India” initiative or involved
in the manufacturing sector in India. This includes
companies that are involved in producing goods and
services, as well as those involved in R&D and
innovation in the manufacturing sector. The logo is
usable in its original form, or it can be adapted for an
organization or company’s branding. For example,
companies can use the logo to promote their products,
services, and activities related to the Make in
India initiative, such as to increase awareness of their
commitment to the initiative or boost their presence in
the Indian market. In addition, they can use the logo to
showcase their progress in the Make in India
programme and its goals. The logo can also signify a
company’s commitment to the initiative and highlight
India’s manufacturing capabilities and potential.There
are certain guidelines for using the “Make in India”
symbol. These guidelines are intended to ensure that
the logo is used correctly and is not misused or abused.

WHY MAKE IN INDIA?
There are multiple reasons why the government has chosen to focus on
manufacturing. The key ones are discussed below:

For the past two decades, India’s growth story seems to have been led by the
services sector. This approach paid off in the short-run, and India’s IT and BPO
sector saw a huge leap, and India was often dubbed the ‘back office of the
world’. However, even though the share of the services sector in the Indian
economy rose to 57% in 2013, it contributed to only 28% in the share of
employment. So, the manufacturing sector needed to be augmented to boost
employment. This is because the services sector currently has low absorption
potential considering the demographic dividend in the country.

Another reason to launch the campaign is the poor condition of manufacturing
in India. The share of manufacturing in the overall Indian economy is only
about 15%. This is way lower than our neighbours in East Asia. There is an
overall trade deficit when it comes to goods. The trade surplus in services
hardly covers one-fifth of India’s trade deficit in goods. The services sector
alone cannot hope to answer this trade deficit. Manufacturing will have to chip
in. The government is hoping to encourage businesses, both Indian and
foreign to invest in manufacturing in India, which will help this sector and also
generate employment in both skilled and unskilled levels.

To focus on manufacturing is that no other sector seems to have such a huge
multiplier effect on economic growth in a country, according to various
studies. The manufacturing sector has larger backward linkages and hence,
growth in demand in manufacturing spurs growth in other sectors as well. This
generates more jobs, investments, and innovation, and generally leads to a
higher standard of living in an economy.
WHY MAKE IN INDIAINITIATIVES
1. For the first time, the sectors of railways,
insurance, defense, and medical devices have
been opened up for more Foreign Direct
Investment (FDI).
2. The maximum limit in FDI in the defense sector
under the automatic route has been raised from
49% to 74%. This increase in FDI was
announced by Finance Minister Nirmala
Sitaraman on May 16, 2020.
3. In construction and specified rail infrastructure
projects, 100% FDI under the automatic route has
been permitted.
4. There is an Investor Facilitation Cell that assists
investors from the time of their arrival in India to
their departure from the country. This was
created in 2014 for giving services to investors in
all phases such as the pre-investment phase,
execution, and also after delivery services.
5. The government has taken steps to improve
India’s ‘Ease of Doing Business’ rank. India
climbed 23 points in the Ease of Doing Business
index to 77th place in 2019, becoming the
highest-ranked in South Asia in this index.
6. The Shram Suvidha Portal, eBiz portal, etc. have
been launched. The eBiz portal offers singlewindow access to eleven government services
connected with starting a business in India.
7. Other permits and licenses required to start a
business have also been relaxed. Reforms are
being undertaken in areas like property
registration, payment of taxes, getting power
connection, enforcing contracts, and resolving
insolvency.
8. Other reforms include licensing process, timebound clearances for applications of foreign
investors, automation of processes for
registration with the Employees State Insurance
Corporation and the Employees Provident Fund
Organization, adoption of best practices by states
in granting clearances, decreasing the number of
documents for exports, and ensuring compliance
through peer evaluation, self-certification, etc.
9. The government hopes to improve physical
infrastructure chiefly through the PPP mode of
investment. Ports and airports have seen
increased investment. Dedicated freight corridors
are also being developed.
The government has launched plans to create 5
industrial corridors. They are underway. These corridors
are spread across the length and breadth of India, with a
strategic focus on inclusive development which will
augment industrialization and urbanization in a planned
manner. The corridors are:
1. Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC)
2. Amritsar-Kolkata Industrial Corridor (AKIC)
3. Bengaluru-Mumbai Economic Corridor (BMEC)
4. Chennai-Bengaluru Industrial Corridor (CBIC)
5. Vizag-Chennai Industrial Corridor (VCIC)

MAKE IN INDIA-PROGRESS
There have been several milestones attributed to the Make in
India scheme. Some of the prominent ones are listed below:
1. The introduction of the Goods and Services Tax (GST)
has eased the tax procedural system for businesses. The
GST has been a fillip to the Make in India campaign.
2. Digitization in the country has gained momentum.
Taxation, company incorporation, and many other
processes have been made online easing the overall
process and improving efficiency. This has upped India’s
rank in the EoDB index.
3. The new insolvency code namely, the Insolvency and
Bankruptcy Code 2016 integrated all laws and rules
relating to insolvency into a single legislation. This has
taken the bankruptcy code of India on par with global
standards.
4. Due to schemes of financial inclusion such as the PMJDY,
as of May 2019, 356 million new bank accounts were
opened.
5. FDI liberalization has helped India’s EoDB index to be
favourable. Larger FDI inflows will create jobs, income,
and investments.
6. Infrastructure and connectivity have received major push
through schemes like Bharatmala and Sagarmala, as well
as various railway infrastructure development schemes.
7. BharatNet – this is a telecom infrastructure provider set up
by the GOI to enhance digital networks in the rural areas
of the country. This is perhaps the world’s largest rural
broadband project.
8. India is ranked four in the world in terms of its capacity to
harness power from winds and ranked number 6 in the
world in harnessing solar power. Overall, India is ranked
fifth in the world in installed renewable energy capacity.

CHALLENGES
INDIA-
Even though the campaign has seen success in some
quarters, there have been criticisms as well. There are
also many challenges facing the country if she is to
achieve the lofty targets set by the establishment. Some
of the criticisms are laid out below.
1. India has about 60% of cultivable land. The thrust
on manufacturing is said to affect agriculture
negatively. It can even cause a permanent
disruption of arable land.
2. It is also believed that the rapid industrialization
(even with the thrust on “going green”) can lead to a
depletion of natural resources.
3. A fallout of inviting large-scale FDI is that local
farmers and small entrepreneurs may not be able to
face the competition from international players.
4. The campaign, with all its focus on manufacturing,
can cause pollution and environmental side-effects.
5. There are serious lacunae in the physical
infrastructure facilities in the country. For the
campaign to be successful, it is necessary to build
up the infrastructure available in the country and
also reduce problems like corruption at the lowest
levels. Here, India can take lessons from China,
which has dramatically improved its share of global
manufacturing from 2.6% in the 1990s to 24.9% in
2013. China rapidly developed its physical
infrastructure like railways, roadways, power,
airports, etc.
