We have witnessed several important policy decisions in the last few years which have created a sound environment for growth of the Industry. The policies have aptly addressed the industry concerns and have catalysed the growth of Startups and MSMEs whose development is crucial for new-age technologies.

It will be my endeavour to continue this momentum where SIDM works closely with the Ministry of Defence, Services, DPSUs and International stakeholders to put forth Industry views. SIDM will encourage and promote initiatives for strengthening our collective movement towards Make In India.“
