The report emphasized that India has a great chance to become a global manufacturing hub, but that this change will require the establishment of a strong logistics infrastructure.
“India’s potential to emerge as the next major global manufacturing hub will be put to the ultimate test. It stated that creating a robust logistics infrastructure would be essential to converting India’s economy from one centered on services to one centered on manufacturing.
The report went on to say that programs like increasing the number of women in the workforce and upskilling workers depend on the labor market’s potential being successfully unlocked.
The report also mentioned how, over the next ten years, India’s rapidly expanding domestic digital market will propel growth within the high-growth startup ecosystem, especially in the consumer and financial technology sectors.
Furthermore, it stated that increased investment, innovation, and the development of infrastructure are all expected to support the growth of the automobile industry in India.
