India have a great great opportunity to emerge as an alternative Global manufacturing hub.india can attract 💰FDI worth  USD 200 billion annually , india can lead Global 4th Industrial Revolution.

The Swiss Bank estimates that India’s foreign direct investment (FDI) pipeline has doubled to 💰$175 billion (12 lakh cr) versus $87 billion last year from sectors like construction, electronics, infrastructure, textiles, food processing and pharma.
I think india can attract total💰FDI worth USD 600 billion between  2021-24...can lead 4th Industrial Revolution.


Key points in favour of India
1) Low wage and skilled labour-
India's monthly Wage half of China,only $80-$120,while China $150-$350

2)We know Govt of  Gujarat and UP offer special package to MNCs ,want to shift their manufacturing units from  China.

3)World Bank's ease of doing business ranking.In six years of the Narendra Modi government, India’s ranking improved 79 places from 142nd in 2014 to 63th in 2019, a record for a major economy.
We can expect India's name may be in T0P 25  world bank ease of doing business  list by 2022....we know modi Govt has taken several initiatives to boost investment.

4) India developing land twice Luxembourg's size for firms moving out of China.
According to the World Bank,Luxembourg is spread across 243,000 hectares.
A total area of 461,589 hectares has been identified across the India ,that includes 115,131 hectares of existing industrial land in states such as Maharashtra, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.

5) Large consumer market. 
We know India is a one of largest market of 1.35 billion or 135 cr people  and any MNCs can't ignore.

6) Large number of  MSMEs
India has almost 65 million MSMEs unit.We know MSMEs considered as the backbone of the manufacturing sector.....we also know MSMEs are complementary to large industries as ancillary units.
In India MSMEs contribute 8% of India’s GDP, around 46% of the manufacturing output, and approx 42% of country's export. 

7) Make in India 
Make in India campaign, one of the core economic strategies of the Modi administration.Make in India will help India to become a manufacturing based  economy from an Agrarian economy.
The make in India launched  by Hon'ble  pm modi in September 2014,the  main aim to transform india into a global manufacturing hub.

Manufacturing sector contributes only 16% in Indian Economy,very low....the main aim of Make in India initiatives  to increase contribution of manufacturing sector  from existing 16% to 35% by 2025.
We know FDI up after lunch of Make in India , india has received more than  $350 billion FDI 2014-2020.

India's total  FDI can hit USD 600 billion 2021-24.....it can generate millions of new jobs.….India can leads the 4th Industrial Revolution in the world....and India's export economy could reach $1.5 trillion by 2024.
Strongly believe that India will be a $5 trillion strong Economy by 2024.
