Mihir V Shah, Executive Director, Vipul Organics Limited Said, “With the Government being sworn in for a straight third time, we expect a continuity of policy. We expect a renewed focus on infrastructure development, manufacturing and job-creation.
India aspires to be an export hub with the stated target of exports of Goods and Services worth $2 Trillion by 2030. This can be made possible by reducing the tariffs on imports of raw materials and ensuring that the right building blocks are in place, especially for the manufacturing sector. In addition, putting stringent anti-dumping measures will ensure that the domestic manufacturers have a level playing field.
We believe that the Budget will ensure that the Government’s commitment to the manufacturing sector as a whole and Chemicals sector in particular moves seamlessly.
Today Chemicals contribute around 7% to the GDP and India is the 6th largest producer of chemicals in the world. The Chemical sector is estimated to grow to $300 Bn by 2025 and $1 Tn by 2040.
We hope that the budget focuses on bringing PLI in the chemical & petrochemical sector so as to propel growth, for both existing and greenfield facilities. In addition, development of quality infrastructure and chemical hubs with centralized waste and effluent treatment systems will bring India at par with the other manufacturing hubs. This will ensure that the sector continues to be an important participant in the India growth story.”
