24 manufacturing cities are envisaged in the perspective plan of the project. In

the first phase, seven cities are being developed, one each in the states of Uttar
Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat and two in Maharashtra.
The manufacturing cities will provide international and domestic investors with a diverse

completed by 2019.

DMIC states (Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat &
Maharashtra) contribute 43% to the countrys GDP; more than half of Indias industrial
production & exports; account for over 40% of workers & number of factories across
India.

Other four corridors which have been conceptualized are

1. Bengaluru-Mumbai Economic Corridor (BMEC);

2. Amritsar Kolkata Industrial Development Corridor (AKIC);
3. Chennai-Bengaluru Industrial Corridor (CBIC),
4. East Coast Economic Corridor (ECEC) with Chennai Vizag Industrial Corridor as
the first phase of the project (CVIC).

DMIC Impact on India

New DMIC Cities will help to meet pressures of Urbanization and also lead

Indias economic growth for the next 20 -30 years.

Challenges for Make In India

Creation of healthy business environment will be possible only when the

administrative machinery is efficient. A business-friendly environment will only be

created if India can signal easier approval of projects and set up hassle-free
clearance mechanism. ( Hassle free clearance system )
To make the country a manufacturing hub the unfavorable factors must be removed.
India should also be ready to give tax concessions to companies who come and set

up unit in the country.( Tax concessions for start-ups )

India's small and medium-sized industries can play a big role in making the country
take the next big leap in manufacturing. India should be more focused towards
novelty and innovation for these sectors. The government has to chart out plans to

give special sops and privileges to these sectors.( Boost to SMEs )

India's make in India campaign will be constantly compared with China's 'Made in
China' campaign. The dragon launched the campaign at the same day as India
seeking to retain its manufacturing prowess. India should constantly keep up its
strength

so

as

to

outpace

China's

supremacy

in

the

manufacturing

sector. ( Competition with china )

India must also encourage high-tech imports, research and development (R&D) to
upgrade 'Make in India'. ( Provide platform for R & D ) .
