Commerce minister Piyush Goyal asks Japanese companies to deepen localisation in India
MeridStreet AI summaryCommerce Minister Piyush Goyal has asked Japanese companies to increase their production in India by making more local components. This means that instead of importing many parts from other countries, Japanese companies should use Indian suppliers and manufacturers to reduce their reliance on foreign goods. By doing so, these companies can take advantage of India's growing economy and use the country as a base for exporting goods to other countries. This could boost India's manufacturing sector and create new job opportunities.
