In line with this vision, the Government notified the Modified Electronics Manufacturing Clusters
(EMC 2.0) Scheme in April 2020.
The scheme supports the creation of world-class electronics manufacturing infrastructure by
providing financial assistance for the development of dedicated clusters with common facilities.
These clusters offer shared infrastructure and amenities, including ready industrial plots, Ready
Built Factory (RBF) sheds, and plug-and-play facilities, to enable rapid establishment of
electronics manufacturing units.
Under the scheme, one electronics manufacturing cluster has been approved in the State of
Maharashtra at Ranjangaon in Pune district, with the projected cost of ₹ 492.85 crore. It covers an
area of 297.11 acre.The proposal has projected investment of ₹2,000 crore and creation of 5000 jobs. Maharashtra
Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) is acting as Project Implementing Agency (PIA) for
this project.
The Financial support from Government of India for this project is ₹207.98 crore and the remaining
amount will be provided by MIDC.
State government’s role
• State Government through PIA, is responsible for implementation and operationalisation of
the electronics manufacturing cluster
• It undertakes statutory clearances, infrastructure planning and development.
• Includes creation of common utilities, and provision of plug-and-play facilities for units in
the cluster.
• Also facilitates necessary approvals for setting up electronics manufacturing units within the
cluster.
Government of India has approved two Common Facility Centres (CFCs) in Maharashtra under the
EMC Scheme:
