Scheme snapshot and national impact
Notified on 8 April 2025, ECMS has an outlay of ₹22,919 crore over six years. As of 30 September 2025, commitments under the scheme total ₹1,15,351 crore nearly double the original target while projected production across approved proposals stands at over ₹10.34 lakh crore in six years. The scheme targets higher domestic value-addition and deeper integration into global electronics value chains.
Why components matter
Components such as HDI PCBs, camera modules and polypropylene film are critical inputs for smartphones, automotive electronics, medical devices and telecom equipment. Strengthening local production reduces import dependence, shortens supply chains and supports India’s ambitions to scale exports in electronics already the country’s third largest export category in 2024–25.
Looking ahead
The ECMS approvals signal a policy-backed move to climb the manufacturing ladder from devices to higher-value components. If investment commitments and production trajectories hold, ECMS could accelerate job creation and boost exports.
