Government has received numerous investment proposals The ‘Make in India’ campaign has opened new avenues for the Indian manufacturing sector. The government has received numerous investment proposals post the launch of the campaign. Various global companies have been aiming to set up a strong foothold in the country, leading to a level of global competitiveness in the country. Advanced and futuristic products have been introduced in the market; companies are investing in R&D activities to come up with innovative products to better service customers. This has further led India to gradually be recognised as a global manufacturing hub while boosting the Indian economy.
Demand to drive more productivityThe government has instilled confidence in the auto component market with assurance of positive policy changes and reforms. Consumers today have evolved and so have their demands. This increase in demand of Indian consumers is going to play a huge role in pushing manufacturers to produce Indian made quality products to cater to their needs. The more thrust on manufacturing, the more number of jobs and better the infrastructure of ancillary industries. 
Exports are also going to play a significant role in guaranteeing success of this initiative.  Also since boosting manufacturing would involve sourcing of raw materials and finished goods, this would lead to the upgrading of infrastructure such a port-to-inland connectivity, cargo airports and the likes. Overall, ‘Make in India’ initiative will give a much required push to all supplementary businesses transforming India to a global manufacturing hub.
Talent & large consumer base attracts global playersIndia offers potential investors in the manufacturing sector a number of competitive advantages. India’s own domestic market is large, with over 600 million rural consumers. Workers’ wages in India are less than half of those in China. India has a large talent pool from which to draw, including a strong engineering ecosystem.
