The New Industrial India: Manufacturing at the Centre of Economic Transformation

Manufacturing is taking on a larger role in India's economic transformation as investment, infrastructure development, domestic demand and global supply-chain changes create new opportunities for industry. This edition examines the forces shaping the country's industrial expansion, from production capacity and logistics to technology, skills and supporting ecosystems. It explores how a stronger manufacturing base can influence competitiveness, employment, supply networks and India's position in an increasingly interconnected global economy.

Editor's Note

Industrial development is about more than adding factories or production capacity. It depends on the wider ecosystem of infrastructure, technology, skills, suppliers and markets that allows manufacturing to compete and grow. In this edition, we examine the changing foundations of Indian industry and the factors influencing its evolution as manufacturing assumes a more prominent role in the country's economic journey.
