“Be vocal about local” is the new motto that Indians are passionate about. We all love our iconic home brands and must extend our continued support for the Indian producers to build an economy that’s not only strong but also self-reliant and comprises of the majority of products produced in our very own India.
More than 40% of handicrafts made in India are exported and the artisans earn amounts equal to nothing or just enough to either meet their housing or food needs. However, their art and sculptures are mind-blowing and deserve all the recognition from the world! You would be surprised by the detailing they do on a thing as simple as a flower vase. It’s simply mind-blowing! But, when exported, neither do they get enough acknowledgement nor money for the time, efforts, and skills they put in for that particular piece of a vase or anything home-made that you can think of.
Now, you must ask, what are the benefits of trying and buying Made in India Products?
To begin with, it will give you a feeling of patriotism and add to the satisfaction you derive from the product.
Secondly, by purchasing made in India Products, you will be bracing the artisans who work passionately for them.
With the increase in demand for Made in India Products, the value of INR i.e. the national currency of India will become stronger and increase worldwide, thus reducing the dominance of the value of Dollars in India. So, not only will our exports increase resulting in more amounts of foreign exchange but imports will become cheaper that will lead to less money flowing from India to other countries.
“Atma-Nirbharta” is the message that has been put forth by the Honourable Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi. It means “self-dependent” or “self-reliant”. If we buy made in India products, only then will it support the economy of India and help the lower-class of our society. Also, this will reduce unemployment and increase the GDP of our country. As the GDP increases, the economy becomes efficient, giving way to more employment opportunities.
With that being said, you would be amazed to know that almost all the essential products that we import from other countries are produced in India by other brands as well! Be it soap, your favourite snack, cosmetic product, or even your preferred category of automobile! Their names might not be competing with the big players of the industry, yet their products are really promising and if we follow the idea of “Be vocal about local” and “Atma-Nirbharta” then they will be competing with the global brands soon enough!
However, with details being scattered all over the internet it might seem overwhelming to trust one particular source. Therefore, we have handpicked the brands in all categories of Made in India Products.
The list is as follows:
Made-in-India Electronics
There are Indian companies that produce all kinds of gadgets ranging from electronic toothbrushes to air conditioners to mobile phones that are more economical.

Also, the Indian Government subsidises Indian manufacturers for producing in India which helps them to maintain a reduced cost.
