The government invites fresh applications under the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for medical devices. The notices seek additional participation from eligible manufacturers under a programme designed to boost domestic production.
The two outlets emphasise different aspects of the same policy announcement. One report focuses mainly on the call for new applications. Another adds that the scheme began in 2020–21, citing progress including domestic manufacturing of more than 60 high-end medical devices and components, and it notes an extension of the scheme through 2035–36. Together, the coverage highlights both the immediate opportunity for applicants and the scheme’s longer-term timeline and early manufacturing outcomes.
