India, Sept. 24 -- The Government of India has issued a release:
As Make in India completes twelve years, the initiative has transformed India's manufacturing landscape by expanding production, investment and capabilities across industries. During this period, production has increased across electronics, automobiles, pharmaceuticals, steel, railways and defence. India has also developed the capacity to manufacture components, machinery, strategic materials and advanced technologies. Initiatives such as NSWS, PLI, PM GatiShakti and the India Industrial Land Bank have supported investment and production. New schemes focus on semiconductors, mobile phones, industrial parks, specialty steel and rare-earth magnets, further strengthening domestic manufacturing.

A New Direction for Indian Manufacturing
Twelve years ago, on 25 September 2014, 'Make in India' was launched with the ambition of becoming a global hub for manufacturing, design and innovation.
The initiative focused on facilitating investment, fostering innovation and developing world-class infrastructure. Guided by 'Minimum Government, Maximum Governance', it has also sought to modernise processes and policies.
Over the years, Make in India has opened new opportunities for businesses and investors to participate in India's manufacturing journey. The initiative has subsequently been expanded under Make in India 2.0. The initiative now focuses on 27 sectors, which include 15 in manufacturing and 12 in services.
India's Manufacturing at a Larger Scale
Manufacturing has recorded strong growth over time. Recent indicators also point to continued growth in manufacturing.
Manufacturing Gross Value Added (GVA) at constant prices recorded a compound annual growth rate of 10.88% between 2022-23 and 2025-26 under the revised national accounts series.
Industrial output provides another indication of recent growth. The manufacturing component of the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) increased by 7.0% during April-July 2026 compared with the corresponding period of 2025.
Rising Production Across Key Manufacturing Industries
The expansion in manufacturing is also visible across several industries, with substantial increases in production and capacity.
Deepening Domestic Manufacturing Capability
The increase in final-product manufacturing is only one part of India's manufacturing journey. Domestic capabilities increasingly extend into the inputs, components, systems and machinery used across industrial value chains.
Advanced Products and Strategic Materials
Components, Systems and Assemblies
Manufacturing capabilities now increasingly cover intermediate components, integrated systems and structural assemblies used in complex final products.
Capital Goods: Machinery Behind Manufacturing
Domestic manufacturing capability also extends to the machinery used to produce, process and assemble goods. Production across heavy engineering equipment and various capital goods sub-sectors increased from Rs.2,87,233 crore in 2019-20 to Rs.5,69,900 crore in 2024-25. This was nearly a twofold increase over the period.
Reforms Journey under Make in India
Make in India's reform journey combines easier investment and business processes with support for domestic production. Recent initiatives build on these measures, extending attention to components, strategic materials and specialised technologies.

Deepening Manufacturing through Recent Initiatives
Conclusion
As 'Make in India' completes twelve years, it continues to strengthen India's position as a manufacturing and investment destination.
The initiative now goes beyond producing more goods and focuses on building the skills, technology and capacity needed to make them in India. As these foundations mature, Indian manufacturing is positioned to create greater value at home and compete with confidence across global markets.
