What is the news?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n

Around 52\u00a0companies\u00a0have applied for availing production-linked incentives (PLIs) for white goods makers, proposing an investment of around Rs 6,000 crore in the manufacturing of components for air conditioners and LED lights.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most of the\u00a0investments\u00a0are expected to happen in the next two-three years; and after that, local production for components for AC and LED light is expected to start.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the potential benefits of PLI scheme for white good makers? <\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n

First,<\/span><\/b>\u00a0it will\u00a0help in saving the foreign currency,\u00a0reduce dependency on foreign countries and\u00a0create job opportunities in the country.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Second<\/span><\/b>,\u00a0average domestic value addition for AC, which is around 20-25 per cent with local components of the product, will go up to 75 per cent in the next five years.\u00a0This would save the cost and time of the industry from sourcing the components.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Third,<\/span><\/b>\u00a0it will enable design-led manufacturing, fuel innovation and drive component exports along with finished ACs from India.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fourth<\/span><\/b>, it will\u00a0also\u00a0enhance design capability and growth of the MSMEs (micro, small and medium enterprises).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What support domestic manufactures are likely to get?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n

First<\/span><\/b>,\u00a0in\u00a0air conditioners, support would be provided for AC components as copper tubes,\u00a0aluminium\u00a0foil and compressors. It will also provide incentives for low-value intermediates such as PCB assembly for controllers, BLDC motors, service valves and cross-flow fans for AC and other components.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Second<\/span><\/b>, for LED lighting products, support will be provided for core components like LED chip packaging, resistors, ICs, fuses and large-scale investments in other components.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
