Batting for Investment: Smart City and Make in India

The world might have moved on after sudden demise of market economy in Europe and US, and slow improvement shows a teething problem due to market over actions. The imbalance in the trade does not allow the Indian traders to open their business abroad. The protective layers to security provided by the european government to their industries is immense. They help them to establish anywhere in the world provided there is surity of good and cheper production and low carbon footprints. The burden which the American and European cities laid on themselves due to exposure to manufacturing the products that are sold in Indian and Chinese markets is immense. The companies presence in India over the period has increased, more and more large traders wants to open their enterprise in India, and surely they would like to sell products manufactured in India, like IKEA or WALLMART, they can be sure of imports as the basis of investment in trading. They are better off if their suppliers can open manufacturing centres in India.

They are set to establish the manufacturing, but as we all know till recently its difficult to open Indian small and medium scale manufacturing of goods. The ease of investment in these daily consumables would allow them to bring technology and capital to harness the cheap labour and market. The potential markets does not allow them to move away in order to survive in consumer driven markets. The cities which are also termed as SMART which are likely to have more areas with like minded consumers and class which can consume at least half of the products readily is prepared to welcome.

We would surely have cities within A CITY. The new consumer landscape would provide opportunities to manufacture and market the brands which are premium as well as bulk in nature to induce consumer markets. The in competitive home products would be left to deal with rest of India, mostly which would be beyond projected 100 smart cities. The 'Make in India' essentially been driven by market turns out to be good investment destinations, the companies who needs to be competitive would survive but the majority communities where trade and commerce would fall.

The youth seeking employment would be trained to service the new FDI (misnomer changed to 'First Develop India') seeks wider acceptance or they would seek investment in the communities which are outcome of new urbanism, mostly emerging out of sub-urbia (Indian version-satellite towns). The cities in India is large in numbers with more than 90 million plus cities and even if the quarter of the population is served and rest utilized to produce products which needs to be sold back to them would generate revenue for manufactures in coming times.

The immense potential of human labour is to be directed by the state actions for providing labourers which are cheap and unprotected through state, would be a boon to investors looking for Make in India products. The ease of business is good till the conditionals are favourable for the Foreign Direct Investment. Forget about trade balance its win win for FDI, for us to stake the claim to be largest coolie population in the world.
