Govt ki 'Make in India' aur PLI scheme ka kamaal!
Chalo, samjhte hain yeh MedTech sector mein itna boom kyun aa raha hai. Asal mein, government ne ispe kaafi focus kiya hai. 'Make in India' aur 'Innovate in India' jaise programs se local companies ko boost mil raha hai. Boston Consulting Group (BCG) aur AiMeD ki report ke mutabik, yeh market jo abhi $16 Billion hai, 2030 tak $41-44 Billion tak ja sakti hai. Yeh sirf India ke liye nahi, global market mein bhi humaare liye badi opportunity hai.
Imports ka time gaya, ab exports ki baari!
Pehle kya hota tha, India Medical devices ke liye 70-80% imports pe depend karta tha, khaas kar high-end machines ke liye. Lekin ab scenario change ho raha hai. Hum sirf domestic demand hi nahi, balki US, EU jaise countries ko bhi export karne ki capacity bana rahe hain. Exports jo abhi around $4 Billion hai, woh 2035 tak $16-18 Billion tak pahunchna expected hai. Hum global medical device market ka sirf 1.5-2% share rakhte hain, jise hum 25 saalon mein 10-12% tak le jaane ka target rakhe hue hain.
Contract Manufacturing mein bhi dum!
Global supply chain ke shift hone ki wajah se, contract manufacturing bhi ek bada opportunity ban gaya hai. India mein OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) apni production spread kar sakte hain. Yeh sector 2035 tak $7 Billion tak pahunch sakta hai.
Sarkari support se lag gayi race!
Government ne is sector ko support karne ke liye ₹3,420 crore ki Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme launch ki hai, jisme 24 projects aur 57 products ko benefit milega. Saath hi, 4 MedTech parks bhi banaye ja rahe hain, jisme Andhra Pradesh MedTech Zone (AMTZ) sabse aage hai. FDI ke liye bhi 100% automatic approval hai. Investment bhi kaafi badh rahi hai, 2019 mein $180 million se badh kar 2025 mein $1.25 billion ho gayi hai.
Challenges bhi hain, par future bright hai!
Haan, kuch challenges bhi hain jaise advanced tech ke liye abhi bhi imports pe depend karna, regulatory processes jo thode slow hain, aur innovation mein investment ki zaroorat. Lekin overall picture bohot positive hai. Agar hum quality aur global standards ko maintain karte hue innovation pe focus karein, toh India truly MedTech mein global leader ban sakta hai.
