The Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion, Ministry of Commerce and Industry initiated the process of formulation of a new Industrial Policy in May 2017. Since the last Industrial Policy announced in 1991, India has transformed into one of the fastest growing economies in the world. With strong macro-economic fundamentals and several path breaking reforms in the last three years, India is equipped to deploy a different set of ideas and strategies to build a globally competitive Indian industry. The new Industrial Policy will subsume the National Manufacturing Policy.

A consultative approach has been taken for industrial policy formulation wherein six thematic focus groups and an online survey on DIPP website have been used to obtain inputs. Focus groups, with members from government departments, industry associations, academia, and think tanks have been setup to delve deep into challenges faced by the industry in specific areas. The six thematic areas include Manufacturing and MSME; Technology and Innovation; Ease of Doing Business; Infrastructure, Investment, Trade and Fiscal policy; and Skills and employability for the future. A Task Force on Artificial Intelligence for India’s Economic Transformation has also been constituted which will provide inputs for the policy.

It is proposed that the new Industrial Policy will aim at making India a manufacturing hub by promoting ‘Make in India’. It will also suitably incorporate the use of modern smart technologies such as IOT, artificial intelligence and robotics for advanced manufacturing.

Hon’ble Minister of State(i/c) for Commerce & Industry Smt Nirmala Sitharaman will hold consultations with stakeholders, including industry captains, think tanks and State governments in Chennai, Guwahati and Mumbai. The Industrial Policy is likely to be announced in October 2017.

DIPP invites comments, feedback, suggestions from the public regarding framing of the new Policy.

The last date of submission of suggestions is 25th September, 2017.

Industries are generating power by Gas Genset or HSD Gensets without Heat Recovery installed. Permission should be given with Heat recovery only. Will save on imported fuel, boost waste heat recovery equipment manufacturers. Improve environment also.

Govt should carryout own survey in organised sector for feedback on employee satisfaction & information on any irregularities going on in organisations. This can improve employee confidence, working conditions in factories & can fine feedback for any irregularities. Can be done yearly or two yearly by digital means.

In pvt sector promoters or some top executives are drawing salary which is more than 600 times than the average salary of all employees in many organisations. Workers are being paid about Rs 12000~15000/ month & promoters are earning more than 50~60 Crs. This is creating big social imbalance. Govt should look into & firm some guidelines.

While fertile land of Gujarat is polluted for industrialisation , hard working peoples from U.P. & Bihar have to travel thousands of kilometrs for jobs. One of India's best college for textiles is in Kanpur but engineers have to search jobs in Gujarat & M.H. Can there be a good solution when there are good & dynamic peoples ruling these states.

In about all pvt companies only few workers are regular & more nos are on contractual basis. Contract workers are paid very less in comparison to permanent workers. If requirement for work is continuous, all workers should be on regular basis. This can raise their skill level & living standard. Now contract workers are discontinued & they have to look for other job. Act in the issue can give security to millions of contract workers in private sector. Initially can be started from big companies.
