India’s Manufacturing Moment: Why Assembly Is Not a Weak Start
India’s Manufacturing Moment: Why Assembly Is Not a Weak Start There has been a lot of debate lately on whether India’s recent manufacturing inflows are “real” or simply limited to assembly. The assumption is that unless a country builds deep manufacturing capability, it cannot truly move up the value chain. But that view misses an important truth about how industrial ecosystems actually evolve.Even if India’s current wave of investment is assembly-led, it sets in motion something much larger. When global companies begin to assemble products locally, they inevitably bring suppliers, logistics partners, testing facilities, and component makers along with them. …
