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.

Is there a way out to monitor the exploitation of SMEs or the final executor, there should be more transparency and honesty in execution of all contracts and works. There should be more strictness in supervision to the laid down specifications, because that is where the whole problem of quality of work is. Today's problems in Railways is only poor quality of work execution.

In our country the biggest buyer for anything and every thing is finally the Government. The big names and big organisations only act as good managers and at times there are new entrepreneurs who are good manipulators having access to the people in power become primary agents and after obtaining the work gives out to smaller agencies and further these agencies give work to SMEs, the final work is done by the SMEs. My concern is sharing profits, that is to say that SMEs should not be exploited.

Labor laws must be changed. Provident fund and employee state insurance are not welcome by employees and forcefully implementing becomes a stumbling block for small industries. Alternatively rules may be made applicable only beyond 100 employees. MSME benefits are only on paper. Even government organizations do not honor MSME guidelines on payment to small industry. Government officials must be trained on selection of parties for tenders. L1 concept is being misused and no viability check is d

Export should be very easy to all eCommerce owners so that they can sell Indian goods to international market like china. Chinese sending their eCommerce goods from china to all over world - Shipping Charges comes - Free or $1-5 only. Here Indian post taking Rs.900 per 250gram and lots of documentations. No easy policy.

Hassle free licensing, liberal labour laws, affordable interest rates, reduction in Gov. interference, supply of power at affordable rates, road and rail links are the essential requirements of industrial developments and hence all these aspects need to be looked into pragmatically and boldly.
