The debate is on Make in India vs Make for India. I am on the side that we have to Make in India for India. That means we need to develop and cater to the domestic market without taking eyes off of the exports.

Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
3. The Make in India campaign
Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
To give a collective thrust to manufacturing sector;
to make India a global manufacturing hub
To create jobs and to revive growth in economy
To retain international investor interest in India
4. The Make in India campaign
Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
How will this be accomplished?
by facilitating ease of entry and investment
through removal of policy and process
constraints
by enhancing investments in transportation,
energy and other infrastructure sectors
5. The Make for India proposition
Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
asks for focus of manufacturing in India to be
on satisfying the needs of Indian markets.
less reliance on export markets
to create a positive cycle of higher demand and
higher supply of goods in India leading to
higher production and sales.
Hence will lead to higher income for Indian
citizens; help to improve and rebuild skill sets.
6. Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
Hence these two propositions are not
mutually exclusive or contradictory.
They are by and large complementary.
They differ however on one major aspect,
viz the export thrust.
MII seeks to make India the global hub
for manufacturing while MFI’s focus is to
develop the Indian market and economy

A historical perspective is necessary
Till four centuries ago India was one of the richest
countries in the world. Every European voyager set
sail to discover a short route to India. Purpose was to
acquire the Wealth of the Nation, vie Silk and Spices.
It is estimated that 25 % of world exports emanated
from India

India during the industrial age
Spent two centuries fighting colonialism.
Subjugation of India’s economic interest to that of
Great Britain.
India was a source of raw materials and a market
for British goods.
Trade through appointed agents.
Even building of the vast rail network in India
benefited only the steel and machinery industry of
the British.
10. Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
India during the industrial age
No science education in Universities till mid 1800s.
No budget, focus or initiative on research at
universities.
No network of scientists, scholars and no
dissemination of knowledge.
Intellectual Property Rights, an unknown concept
11. Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
India during the industrial age
Two centuries of colonialism meant that
•We missed the Industrial revolution
•We yielded the ground on scientific temper and spirit
•We lost the entrepreneurial spirit
12. Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
The world however has moved from the Industrial age
to Information age in the last 50 years.
The computer and internet revolution has swept across
the globe. Business Advantages built skilfully over two
centuries have been wiped out to create a level playing
field.
“Death of Distance, time zones and Information gaps ”
The business advantage accrues to the innovator, owner
of knowledge assets
Where in the world are we now?

24. Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
• Trade imbalances can arise but are addressed by money
flows in required direction
• Money flows can occur independent of Trade
• One country funds can be used to hold titles to assets in
other country
• Exchange rate setting mechanism can be either
controlled or uncontrolled
• Relative strength of economies of the countries impacts
on the exchange rate

25. Make in India(MII) & Make for India (MFI)
• Model gets complicated in many ways
• Country B ( with soft currency) may not be able to procure
all the Goods and NF Services it seeks/needs.
• Government of Country B has a major role in controlling
the exchange rate. It further brings many import
restrictions.
• Sometimes through Development Grants, Aids and Loans
obtained through a Development Bank/Entity of Country A,
Country B can get access to hard currency to procure goods
and NF Services from Country A

26. Law of comparative Advantage
David Ricardo, in 1807, enunciated this principle.
Consider two countries A and B, whose citizens
need both food and clothing.
Country A people are smarter than Country B.
They are more productive than B in producing
food and clothing. The productivity difference is
higher in food compared to clothing. But they have
enough resources to produce only one of them.
Then Ricardo showed that people of both
countries are better off if Country A produces
food and Country B, clothing and they trade with
each other.
Cooperation leads to Win Win for both.
