Turning back on a decade and a half’s time starting when cheaper mobile phones from abroad entered India’s domestic market, the government is now gearing up to make India a manufacturing hub for electronics and especially mobile phones, said Ramesh Vaswani, senior director, Intex technologies.

According to industry estimates, only about two per cent of value addition is done in India with regards to mobile phone manufacturing. Raising that figure over the next ten years is the primary aim of the PMP,

which was proposed by a joint panel of the industry and the government, he added.
