Under India’s Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for electronics, the government disbursed ₹155.54 billion, as of December 31, 2025, in incentives under large-scale electronics manufacturing and IT hardware.
The scheme has significantly accelerated domestic production, with 59 participating companies reporting incremental output of ₹2.45 trillion in the current financial year up to December 2025.
This sharp rise shows growing capacity expansion and deeper localisation in the electronics value chain of India.
The electronics sector has played a central role in attracting investments and boosting exports.
Overall, the PLI schemes have brought in over ₹2.16 trillion in investments and generated production and sales exceeding ₹20.41 trillion, with exports crossing ₹8.3 trillion across 14 sectors.
Beyond incentives, the government is simultaneously building a stronger ecosystem to sustain electronics manufacturing growth. Initiatives such as the Semicon India Programme are aimed at developing a domestic semiconductor base, reducing reliance on imports in a globally concentrated supply chain.
Complementary schemes like SPECS, EMC, and M-SIPS are also supporting the development of component manufacturing and cluster-based ecosystems, helping strengthen supply chain resilience.
Meanwhile, infrastructure initiatives like PM Gati Shakti and the National Logistics Policy are focused on improving connectivity, lowering logistics costs, and enhancing overall competitiveness.
Together, these efforts are putting India as an increasingly attractive hub for electronics manufacturing, with the PLI scheme acting as a catalyst for scale, investment, and long-term industrial capability.
The details were shared by Minister of State for Commerce and Industry, Jitin Prasada, in the Rajya Sabha on March 27, 2026.
