Promoting Local Production and Reducing Import Dependencies
The implementation of a PLI scheme specifically designed for space-grade components holds the potential to foster local production. Pixxel’s Founder and CEO, Awais Ahmed, emphasized that such a scheme would not only stimulate domestic manufacturing but also contribute to diminishing import dependencies. Additionally, it would play a pivotal role in establishing a robust and self-reliant supply chain within the country.
