| Summary / Abstract (Note) | India has the potential to emerge as a gobal platform for defence research, maufacturing and supply chain sourcing. With ambitious acquisition plans for modernisation, India has a historic opportunity, as the Modi Government has launched the Make in India initiative. The defence sector is one of the 25 sector which can propel manufacturing to new heights. May proactive steps such as change in DPP, Licensing norms, FDI limit have been taken. However, this sector to take off needs adequate and quality talent. India needs about 200, 000 skilled people in the defence and aerospace industry in ten years. For the Aerospace and Defence Industry, which works at the cutting edge of technology, availability of technical talent is becoming an acute challenge. There are serious structural gaps in the demand and supply of talent in this sector. |
