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.

People can't eat nuts and bolts. They need food. The greatest problem today is lack of food producers, and more the industrialization, more people are rejecting farming. The need of the hour is good quality food and not good quality nuts, bolts and microchips. You may say lot of food is available, but if we minus the pesticides and fertilizers from food, hardly any healthy component will remain. You can't promote industrialization and agriculture both. Better choose food over useless things

I have an imagination on industrialization policy, let's give it a thought. As we can observe our banks have huge NPA's and what's the root cause? While giving loan to any organization they have not given focus on returns, market demand, competition, etc. thereby government should have a consultancy firm which should have all the present companies listed with their present, potential production capacities and market demand trends. If we can analyse this we can save existing and new entreprenuers

As per my view India should focus in Small Scale Industry. Being a Metallurgist the things that comes in my Mind are 1. PVC, Usually Pipes are made of PVC but other things may be made easily. 2. Fiber coating/ Stuffs made of Fiber In existing loss making industries reevaluation of staff may be done by external authority and staff may be posted to according to their capabilities. For Robotics/ Artificial Intelligence, Engineers from IITs ,NITs may be promoted by mean of competition.

4. Ask the requirements of the manufacturers, help them to fulfill their needs without much hindrance. 5. Avail them excellent and cheaper means of transportation. 6. If the manufactures are foreigners, provide them homely atmosphere. If we will give good facilities to the manufactures, they will give us better results.

If we want India be a manufacturing hub, the following points must be implemented as soon as possible -- 1. Make India corruption free , if it not possible, at least assist the manufactures, cooperate with them,provide them a burden free atmosphere,help them get license etc. without much formality. 2. Ensure good security of the manufacturers,their plants/factories. 3. Make an attractive tax slab for them -- tax should be minimum in the initial years that must be increased slowly.

The Make In India campaign shall give some benefits to manufacturing organization for going digital. Incentives for taking plunge into digitization of factories shall be encouraged through incentives. With Cyber Physical System catching up, the factories can be assessed for digitization efforts and shall be certified as Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 digital organization (or some good names for those certifications) for such adaptations. This will motivate factories to go Digital.

Ease of doing business is the main concern for me. It can be improved by building an online portal with all of the service from building plan approvals to environment approvals being granted online to help businesses.

Employee Welfare: 1956 act quotes 8hrs and 6days work for production firms, that should be waived off in 5days work with more working hours each day. This, on one hand save the operating costs of industries, on other will give rest to workers also. Reason being, in metros, people are travelling approx 3-4hrs a day for work only, one day weekly off dont allow them to rest, as a result, they fall week and ill, and then starts the vicious cycle of hospital and medicines.
