MAKE IN INDIA/STARTUP

INTRODUCTION

Make In India: India is the fastest-growing country with rich resources, enormous potentials, and demographic dividends, but Indian resources are not utilized properly. The Prime Minister of India presented the initiative by which Indian resources can be utilized fully - "MAKE IN INDIA". The Make in India movement has contributed a lot to the economic development of the nation. This campaign was started with the motive to make India a global hub for manufacturing by encouraging foreign investors and making India an imperative investment destination.

According to the World Bank Publication 2019 "Ease of Doing Business" India ranked 63rd out of 190 countries. As a result, there is competition between Indian states; each state is trying to improve its rank on the ease of doing business index. It is based on the proportion of points completed on the Make in India initiative's 98-point action plan for business reform. Currently, the top six states are Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Haryana, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, and West Bengal (44.35%).

Make in India launched on September 25, 2014, is an initiative to facilitate investment, foster innovation, build best in class manufacturing infrastructure, make doing business easier, and enhance skill development. Make in India (MII) was one of the first 'Vocal for Local' initiatives that introduced the world to India's manufacturing sector. The "Make in India" initiative is built on four pillars identified to boost entrepreneurship in India, not just in manufacturing but also in other sectors. New Processes, New Infrastructure, New Sectors, and New Mindset are the four pillars of Make in India.

Our Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has explained it very well in his words -

"I want to tell the people of the whole world: Come, make in India. Come and manufacture in India.

Go and sell in any country of the world, but manufacture here. We have skill, talent, discipline and the desire to do something.

We want to give the world an opportunity that come make in India,"
