PLI scheme needs expansion for drone development

With an objective of making India a worldwide drone centre, the government must build an ecosystem and expand the production-linked incentive (PLI) programme., as per a Nexgen Exhibitions report. Based on estimates from the Ministry of Civil Aviation, the drone manufacturing sector in India is projected to grow from Rs 0.6 billion in 2020?21 to Rs 9 billion by 2025. Additionally, it stated that between 2024 and 2030, the Indian drone industry is anticipated to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.15%.India has the potential to become the world's drone hub by 2030 via innovation and portfolio development. The analysis made clear that strengthening the domestic drone ecosystem is essential to achieving India's objectives. It said that promoting the Made in India programme, expanding the PLI scheme, and government procurement are further significant drivers.

Drone applications are already well-established in the domains of COVID management, rescue and disaster management, and border surveillance.

International businesses from the Middle East, Europe, the UK, the US, and Australia were also contacted for the poll. The International Drone Expo 2024 is a premier event for unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) and its applications, including air taxi, LiDAR, geospatial data, and artificial intelligence. It is one of the largest forums in Asia for connecting customers, industry representatives, and stakeholders from all sectors of the drone business. This year, drones, anti-drone systems, and UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) will be the main topics of discussion for a variety of reasons.
