Mumbai, Feb 14 || India should focus on 10 priorities, ranging from building a future‑ready workforce to deepening manufacturing competitiveness and scaling MSMEs, to reach the goal of ‘Viksit Bharat’ by 2047, a new report has said.
The report from KPMG in India said the first step of building a future ready workforce calls for operationalising education, skilling and employment continuum, expanding apprenticeships and building deep‑tech capability so talent is job ready across manufacturing, services and emerging technologies.
The report highlighted moves to make manufacturing globally competitive by localising components, adopting Industry 4.0, raising factory productivity, and aligning clusters closely with exports and quality standards.
MSMEs should shift from survival mode to scale mode through cash‑flow based credit, cluster‑led productivity programs, digital adoption and structured export enablement linked to anchor supply chains.
Other priorities include integrated infrastructure and improving trade competitiveness with export diversification.
