India's Electronics Manufacturing Grows Sixfold, Exports Eightfold in 11 Years

In a report presented to the Rajya Sabha, India's Minister of State for Electronics and IT, Jitin Prasada, detailed the significant growth in the country's electronics manufacturing sector. Over the past 11 years, electronics manufacturing has increased sixfold, from Rs 1.9 lakh crore in 2014-15 to Rs 11.32 lakh crore in 2024-25. Exports have grown eightfold in the same period, making electronics the third-largest export category. This growth is driven by the Indian government's Atma Nirbhar Bharat and Make in India initiatives, as well as various Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes for electronics and IT hardware. The country is not only expanding its manufacturing capabilities but also playing a crucial role in the global electronics supply chain with increased investments in semiconductor infrastructure.
