policies in that regard.
AGNII
• AGNII or Accelerating Growth of New India’s Innovation was launched to achieve
the innovation ecosystem in the country by connecting people and assisting in
commercializing innovations.
 Reasons for not achieving the targets of Make
in India
• Make in India was overly reliant on foreign funding and global markets for its
investments and products. As a result, domestic production had to be planned around demand
and supply conditions elsewhere, which added to the uncertainty.
• It absorbed far too many sectors, resulting in a lack of policy concentration.
• The twin deficits of fiscal and current account deficits were of greater concern to
policymakers. However, they overlooked the economy's third deficit, the Implementation
Deficit.
• This has resulted in a situation where the 'ease of doing business' ranking has risen
dramatically, yet investments have yet to arrive.
• The investment issue is partially attributable to the economy's declining savings rate and partly
owing to the banking sector's nonperforming assets (NPA) crisis.
• 12-14% annual growth rate is significantly above the capacity of India's industrial
sector.
• FDI inflows to India are primarily oriented to the capital markets, despite the fact
that India is one of the world's top FDI destinations, with inflows of $49 billion in 2019. In
2019, manufacturing FDI was barely around $8 billion.
 Make In India 2.0
• Some newer sectors have been added that
have the potential to become global
champions and drive double-digit growth
in manufacturing in the coming years such
as capital goods, Auto, Defense,
Pharma, Renewable energy,
Biotechnology, Chemicals, Leather,
Textiles, Food processing.
• For the manufacturing sector, plans are
coordinated by the Department for
Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade
(DPIIT) while the Department of
Commerce is coordinating service sectors.
