PLI Scheme

Brief Context

The Production Linked Incentive scheme (launched 2020, 14 sectors, ~₹1.97 lakh crore outlay) pays incentives on incremental sales of domestically manufactured goods. Its reported cumulative impact — ₹15.2 lakh crore in exports and ₹2.4 lakh crore in investment — is a separate but complementary lever to FTAs: while FTAs open preferential market access abroad, PLI aims to build the domestic manufacturing capacity that can supply those very export markets competitively.
