India\u2019s solar sector ranked amongst the top five attractive world markets by IBEF. To keep the momentum of increased investments in the renewable energy space in India and to make India self-reliant, the government announced a production linked scheme and one of the largest budget allocations of Rs. 33.7 billion in the country\u2019s history. The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has given its approval to introduce the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme in high efficiency solar PV modules for enhancing India\u2019s manufacturing capabilities and increasing exports, involving an outlay of Rs. 24,000 crores.<\/p>\n
