India is stepping up its efforts to strengthen domestic supply chains, reduce import dependence for critical electronic components, and support the growth of high-value manufacturing capabilities in the country, with the latest approval of 22 proposals under the Electronics Components Manufacturing Scheme (ECMS) by Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). The approved proposals amount to projected investment of Rs 41,863 crore, with projected production of Rs 2,58,152 crore. These approvals are expected to generate 33,791 direct employment opportunities.

These approvals include manufacturing of 11 target segment products, which have cross sectoral application such as mobile manufacturing, telecom, consumer electronics, strategic electronics, automotive and IT hardware products. These 11 products are 5 bare components like PCB, Capacitors, Connectors, Enclosures and Li-ion Cell; 3 sub-assemblies like Camera Module, Display Module and Optical Transceiver; and 3 supply chain items like Aluminium Extrusion, Anode Material and Laminate (Copper Clad).
