TN, UP, Karnataka & Maharashtra boost of robust Electronics Design and Manufacturing ecosystem: Report

New Delhi, Oct 14 (KNN) In view of creating a favourable environment for the electronics systems design and manufacturing (ESDM) investments states such as Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, UP, and Maharashtra are on the top list.

The State Preparedness Index for the ESDM was released by Electronics and Semiconductor Association (IESA) on Thursday in Bengaluru. 

The aim of the index is to assist states in recognising their strong points and weaknesses to lure investors.

Current and future potential in ESDM, infrastructure and geographical advantage, policies and governance, business climate, and human capital are the key parameters IESA identified for the index.

IESA classified them into three categories -- nascent, emerging, and developing after evaluating the states on the parameters and sub-parameters.

However none of the Indian states qualified for the fourth category called mature & well-established.

The index identifies Haryana, Telangana, Gujarat, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, UP, and Maharashtra as developing states for ESDM.

For taking proactive ESDM measures Haryana and Telangana have been further clubbed under a sub-category called accommodative.

While Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and Uttar Pradesh are in an accelerating stage, which means that they are on track to achieve rapid progress in terms of the attacking initiatives for ESDM.  (KNN Bureau)
