I wonder why all Indian brands are discounted. What do Voltas, Godrej, Bluestar need to do to command premium or at least be on par with the Korean and Japanese brands.

Will the new EV policy be the game changer for Passenger EV segment to take off in India in a big way. Couple of greenfield 500 M USD EV dedicated plants serving global markets may be the catalyst, supplementing efforts of existing players. Ministry of Heavy Industries

From #ETAwards - from Hon Min Jaishankar - “we cannot be a major power without technology and we cannot have technology without strong manufacturing” how true! Something for all of us to ponder over.

Visited two Space Tech companies today - Ananth Technologies and Pixxel. Very encouraged to see investments they are making, skills they are acquiring and aspirations they have. Companies like these will help put India’s space aspirations within reach. ⁦IN-SPACe⁩

Thank you Dr Jitendra Singh (मोदी का परिवार) for your presence today at this historic day for the Indian space sector. ISRO and the private sector together will propel the economic and societal benefits of space and fulfill the vision of Hon PM. IN-SPACe @PMO

A significant milestone in our space journey as Hon PM virtually laid the foundation stone for the 2nd launch center at Kulsekharpatnam and ISRO launched a sounding rocket from this site. This center wld be a great boost for Pvt Sector’s foray into small launchers. IN-SPACe

Women power of ISRO that Hon PM mentioned in his speech today at VSSC. He laid out the ambitious targets for space sector in science, in societal benefits and economic contribution. IN-SPACe

The amended FDI policy is one more visionary step by Hon PM to propel India to new heights in space sector. This will give boost to Private Sector participation in space research, manufacturing and services by opening doors for global collaboration and investment. IN-SPACe

The amended FDI policy for the space sector approved by the cabinet today. A huge enabler for India’s big aspirations for the space sector. pib.gov.in/PressReleasePa…

Congratulations to ISRO for yet another picture perfect launch. They make it look so routine now. With all the successes of ISRO in the last 6 months, India has certainly entered the new Space Era.

Had an interesting meeting with Lord Mayor of London on the menace of space debris. They are working on a proposal for mandatory insurance for debris removal in case of a pre-mature space craft failure. Any thought? ⁦Lord Mayor, City of London⁩ ⁦IN-SPACe⁩

Attended First ever stakeholder meeting organised by DPIIT with all 700 PLI companies and line ministries in the presence of Piyush Goyal (मोदी का परिवार). Encouraged to see performance so far. I am convinced that PLI schemes will by and large deliver on the intent and even exceed in some cases.

Delighted that Mahindra is leading the pack in ADAS equipped veh. with a share of >40%. And to see that ADAS is seen as hot tech trend presently. I urge the industry to do local R&D to advance ADAS tech in India. Many building blocks exist with ISRO. Mahindra Group SIAM India

Attended Vibrant Gujarat for the first time. It was more vibrant than I had imagined. Great venue, flawless execution, high impact participants, good content. Session on space was standing room only. PMO India CMO Gujarat

Took a first ever ride in Mumbai Metro II. A very pleasant experience. Neat & Clean, well organised, safe, smooth ride, spacious station, friendly staff. Could be any European city. Our new infra is definitely of global standards. And yet affordable. ⁦MMRDA⁩
