12 years of ‘Make in India’ in 12 metrics — Low and patchy impact on growth, employment & global share

Twelve years on from the launch of the Make in India campaign on September 25, 2014, a look at 12 metrics spanning growth, investment, employment, and exports shows that the manufacturing sector’s share in India’s economic growth, employment, and global exports has remained largely the same since then. While recent incentive schemes by the government have seen some success, those gains are limited to a handful of sectors.
