National Manufacturing Policy 2011

25/10/2011
Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion

This National Manufacturing Policy approved by the Union Cabinet aims at augmenting the share of manufacturing in GDP to 25% within a decade, create 100 million jobs and ensure sustainability of growth.

This Policy document has been prepared after extensive stakeholder consultations and inputs from the industry, state governments and experts in the field of manufacturing, technology development, and business environment. The policy seeks to present specific action points in the areas identified as constraints that require immediate policy attention. There could be several other constraints which affect the sector but it is not possible to deal with all of them at the same time. This policy therefore does not claim to address all possible issues affecting the manufacturing sector in India but those that are critical to its growth at this juncture.
