ECMS to Boost India’s Local Electronics Value Addition to 40%

India’s first Electronics Component Manufacturing Scheme (ECMS) is poised to double local value addition in the production of finished electronic goods to 35–40 per cent over the next five years, according to industry body Elcina.

The scheme has attracted record investment proposals worth Rs 1.15 trillion, more than double the initial target of Rs 590 billion. A total of 249 companies have submitted applications, which will undergo screening before approval.

Elcina Secretary General Rajoo Goel said, “This is a game changer for India’s electronics ecosystem, boosting value addition from the current 15–20 per cent to 35–40 per cent in the coming years.”

Union Minister for Electronics and IT Ashwini Vaishnaw noted that, against a production target of Rs 4.56 trillion, proposals have been submitted for electronics component manufacturing worth over Rs 10.34 trillion. The largest proposal of Rs 358.13 billion was for enclosures of mobile phones, IT hardware, and related devices, a segment led by players like Tata Electronics.

Other major segments attracting investments include:

  • Flexible printed circuit boards: Rs 165.42 billion
  • Electro-mechanical components: Rs 143.62 billion
  • Multi-layer PCBs: Rs 141.50 billion
  • Sub-assemblies and bare components: Rs 92.26 billion
  • Display module sub-assemblies: Rs 86.42 billion
  • Camera module sub-assemblies: Rs 62.05 billion
  • Lithium-ion cells: Rs 45.16 billion
Proposals for capital goods, optical transceivers, and passive components have also been received, indicating strong participation by global companies.

Elcina President Sasi Gandhanam said, “The overwhelming response reflects rising confidence in India as a manufacturing hub. State governments must support this momentum with ease-of-doing-business measures to unlock further investments, create employment, and generate a multiplier effect on the economy.”

ICEA Chairman Pankaj Mohindroo added that ECMS will strengthen domestic sub-assembly and component manufacturing, enhancing India’s global competitiveness and core electronics capabilities.
