India’s Industrial Growth is Creating a New Leadership Imperative
India is going through a transformative period in terms of industrial growth on account of infrastructure development, manufacturing prowess, industrialization, diversification of supply chain, capital investment, and government schemes like Make in India and Production Linked Incentives (PLI).
