The Pradhan Mantri Skilling and Employability through Upgraded ITIs (PM-SETU) scheme envisages to enhance the overall quality and relevance of vocational training with upgraded labs, machines, and industry-aligned curriculum in the country.
The key objectives of the scheme are:
The scheme comprises of two components:
PM-SETU is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme with an outlay of Rs.60,000 crore (Central Share: Rs.30,000 crore, State Share: Rs.20,000 crore and Industry Share: Rs.10,000 crore), with co-financing to the extent of 50% of Central share by the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank, equally.
The selection of ITIs under PM-SETU scheme is led by the respective State/UT Governments in consultation with industry, ensuring alignment with emerging skill needs and local industrial potential. Accordingly, States/UTs are required to submit proposals for upgradation in collaboration with industry partners. Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) has constituted National Steering Committee (NSC) chaired by Secretary, MSDE, an apex body to provide the overall vision for the scheme, facilitate broad policy direction, finalize operational guidelines, monitor, and conduct course correction. 32 States/UTs have constituted their State Steering Committee (SSC) led by Chief Secretary of the State/UT, an apex body at the State/UT level for guiding and overseeing the implementation of scheme. 19 States/UTs have floated their proposal for inviting the interest of industry. For selection of the industry partner to form Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), a Strategic Investment Plan (SIP) by industry is required to be submitted in response to the Request for Proposal (RFP).
Progress under the scheme is monitored through Six (6) Disbursement Linked Indicators (DLIs), which are periodically reviewed through independent third-party verification. Indian Institute of Management Indore has been engaged to carry out this verification.
The DLIs are as follows:
The State Government of Karnataka has identified two clusters under the PM-SETU Scheme, with Hub ITIs located in the districts of Bengaluru and Kalaburagi. The State of Karnataka has floated Expression of Interest (EOI) for inviting industry proposal. At present, no proposal or Strategic Investment Plan (SIP) from the State is pending for consideration or approval before the National Steering Committee (NSC). The details of the ITIs selected in Bengaluru Urban and Bengaluru Rural are provided in table below:
