Industry Outlook

India’s telecom sector is witnessing strong growth, supported by rapid 5G rollout, increasing broadband penetration, and government-backed manufacturing initiatives. The Union Cabinet has approved a Rs. 12,195 crore Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for telecom and networking products, while the Department of Telecommunications has intensified efforts toward indigenous telecom equipment development and 6G research. 

The country ranks among the world’s largest telecom markets, with over 1.2 billion subscribers and rising data consumption. Government spending of over Rs. 81,000 crore for the telecom and IT sector in FY26, coupled with growing investments in fiber networks, data centers, and digital infrastructure, is expected to create significant opportunities for domestic telecom manufacturers such as ITI Ltd.
