For decades, policy support has favoured most labour-intensive industries such as textiles, chemicals, auto components and pharmaceuticals. Recent announcements in the Union Budget, however, show a strong decimation towards capital-intensive, technology-centric manufacturing, especially in areas associated with critical minerals and advanced materials.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most strategic results of this shift is the set up of Rare Earth Corridors in across mineral rich Coastal states of Odisha, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. As ascertained through updates provided by the Press Information Bureau, these corridors are being designed as integrated industrial ecosystems of mining, mineral processing, research, and downstream manufacturing of Rare Earth Permanent Magnets (REPMs).<\/p>\n<p>This initiative is a big signal that India is moving away from being a raw mineral exporter to being a value-added advanced materials manufacturing hub.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_87_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-white ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Read_More_Our_Books\" >Read More: Our Books<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Why_Rare_Earths_Are_Important_to_Modern_Manufacturing\" >Why Rare Earths Are Important to Modern Manufacturing<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Rare_Earth_Corridors_Industrial_Clusters\" >Rare Earth Corridors: Industrial Clusters<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Policy_Support_for_REPM_Manufacturing\" >Policy Support for REPM Manufacturing<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Read_More_Business_Plans_Project_Profiles\" >Read More: Business Plans \/ Project Profiles<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Business_Opportunities_Throughout_the_Value_Chain\" >Business Opportunities Throughout the Value Chain<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Component_Manufacturing_Segments_that_are_MSME_Friendly\" >Component Manufacturing: Segments that are MSME Friendly<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/rare-earth-manufacturing-in-india\/#Read_More_Project_Reports_Profiles\" >Read More: Project Reports &amp;
