Manufacturing Sector in India
According to a report by Mckinsey and Company, India?s manufacturing sector could touch US$ 1 trillion by 2025. There is potential for the sector to account for 25-30 per cent of the country?s GDP and create up to 90 million domestic jobs, by 2025.
The Government of India has taken several initiatives to promote a healthy environment for the growth of manufacturing sector in the country. Some of the notable initiatives and developments are:
The government has an ambitious plan to locally manufacture as many as 181 products India currently imports at a cost of at least US$ 18.1 billion. The construction industry is an important indicator of the development. It has contributed an estimated6708billion to the national GDP in 2011-12 (a share of around9%).
As the manufacturing and construction sectors grow, so will the opportunities in these sectors, like for Electrical Engineers.
