Recognise industrial electronics as national strategic priority: ICEA
NEW DELHI: The India Cellular and Electronics Association ( ICEA ) on Monday said that industrial electronics should be considered as a national priority, and noted that the segment is crucial for the country's $500 billion electronics manufacturing target by FY31. The Delhi-based industry body, which represents Chinese brands such as, Xiaomi, Oppo and Vivo, as well as Apple and Corning in India, noted that it is crucial to manufacture electronics that will automate factories, cities, and transport networks. 'The industrial electronics segment must be recognised as a national strategic priority. It is the brain and nervous system of every advanced manufacturing setup. Without leadership in industrial automation, India cannot claim true manufacturing leadership,' said Pankaj Mohindroo, chairman, ICEA. According to ICEA, industrial electronics have a massive potential for high-skilled employment, particularly in areas such as embedded systems, automation software, robotics, and AI-integrated systems. 'We must invest in talent pipelines, R&D, and incentives to grow this sector. India should aim to become not just a user of industrial electronics, but a global design and manufacturing hub for it,' Mohindroo said. In March this year, the Narendra Modi-led government approved a ₹22,919 crore scheme to incentivise the manufacturing of electronics components in India. The scheme is expected to attract an investment of ₹59,350 crore, resulting in the production of ₹4.56 lakh crore worth of products 'The industrial electronics forms the technological backbone of modern manufacturing infrastructure, powering smart factories, robotics, intelligent grids, automated systems, and future-ready transport and logistics networks,' said Manish Walia, VP, Delta Electronics. ICEA is currently leading efforts to craft a dedicated policy and strategic roadmap for industrial electronics through its 'Steering Committee on Industrial Electronics and Infrastructure', in close collaboration with the government and leading industry stakeholders. The steering committee comprises top executives from companies such as such as Delta Electronics, Infineon Technologies, Festo, Fanuc, Rockwell Automation India, Feedback Advisory and Federation for Economic Development (FED). To this extent, ICEA cited that homegrown Amber Enterprises, through its subsidiary ILJIN Electronics India, recently acquired a controlling stake in Israeli Unitronics for ₹404 crore to focus on industrial automation technologies . Unitronics brings with it cutting-edge capabilities in Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs), Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), and Industrial IoT, all of which are key enablers of Industry 4.0 . 'This transaction will significantly strengthen India's Industrial automation by providing a strong foothold in the rapidly growing sector of Industry 4.0 solutions and real-time data-driven technologies. This will accelerate our nation's transition towards smart factories and digitally-driven production systems, ultimately supporting the goal of Atmanirbhar Bharat in high-tech manufacturing,' said Jasbir Singh, executive chairman & CEO of Amber Group .

Following the announcement, AIFF came up with an optimistic message, stating that it will take all the necessary steps to ensure the continuity of the Indian Super League. 'If the league doesn't take place, it is not only footballers but the people who are associated with football that will be affected. It's thousands of people who will be affected. So, we will put our best effort to ensure that the league happens,' AIFF president Kalyan Chaubey had said. The current agreement between FSDL and AIFF, which brings the league's structure operations and commercial framework under the purview, is set to expire on December 8. As the league season typically starts in September and lasts till April, the situation has become complex with broadcasters needing clarity to plan logistics and commercial activations. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD In a letter to the AIFF, the clubs expressed dissatisfaction over the lack of communication from both the federation and FSDL. The communication gap has made the future uncertain. 'This has impacted not just short-term decisions but is now beginning to affect the structural backbone of our institutions,' the letter read. The letter was acknowledged by Bengaluru FC, Jamshedpur FC, FC Goa, Hyderabad FC, Kerala Blasters, NorthEast United FC, Odisha FC and Punjab FC. The Kolkata-based clubs - Mohun Bagan Super Giant, East Bengal and Mohammedan Sporting - along with Mumbai City FC and Chennaiyin FC, did not sign the letter. As the Supreme Court's ruling is due, Thursday's meeting can prove to be crucial as an urgent measure is needed to ensure the continuation of the ISL in the upcoming season.
