Thiru also extended his gratitude to the NSDC and THSC teams for the invaluable opportunity to represent India on the world stage.

Lt. Gen (Dr.) M D Venkatesh, Vice Chancellor of MAHE, extended his heartfelt congratulations to Harshvardhan, saying, "Harshvardhan’s achievement on the global stage is truly commendable.

BVR Subrahmanyam: “Rise Of India Is The Most Benign Rises In The World”

* “India is at its inflection point to become a Global Powerhouse”

At the Public Affairs Forum of India’s (PAFI) 11th Annual Forum, Shri BVR Subrahmanyam, CEO, NITI Aayog, Government of India said, “Our economy should easily double by 2023”.

Shri Subrahmanyam emphasized that by 2047, India will be among the world's youngest nations demographically, poised for prosperity, with a projected per capita income of around $18,000 to $20,000. This growth is significant as India is expected to emerge as a major global player, building on the substantial progress made over the past decade in addressing challenges such as natural disasters and poverty. By mid-2025, many basic issues are anticipated to be resolved, setting the stage for robust economic advancement.

Shri Subrahmanyam said India stands at a pivotal moment in its journey toward becoming a global powerhouse, with projections indicating an economy of $38 trillion and a youthful population that strengthens its global position. As a ‘Vishwamitra’ and ‘Vishwabandhu’, India’s rise benefits the world, particularly through its climate and green technologies leadership. India’s ambition to become the third-largest economy by 2026-2027 necessitates a cohesive grand strategy, prioritizing the resolution of the middle-income trap as a critical challenge to our long-term aspirations.

Shri Subrahmanyam added that urban development and infrastructure are crucial, with cities designed as economic hubs to drive growth. The private sector must lead in innovation and investment, supported by an enabling environment that attracts both portfolio and direct investments. Additionally, reforming supply chains is essential for navigating globalization, while India’s emphasis on Atmanirbharta fosters trade on our own terms. By establishing itself as a solutions hub for engineering and promoting "Make in India" as a hallmark of quality, India can create a strong base for global markets. Ultimately, reforms at the state level and a commitment to cooperative federalism will ensure inclusive growth, positioning India to emerge as a global giant and lead into a prosperous future.

The welcome note was given by Deepshikha Dharmaraj, President, PAFI, Chief Executive Officer, Burson Group; the event was moderated by Harish Krishnan, Past President & Co-Founder, PAFI, Managing Director and Chief Policy Officer, Cisco India and SAARC, and the vote of thanks was given by T.

Euro Panel Products Ltd Integrates India’s Most Advanced Coil Coating Line In INR 30 Crore investment To Boost Make-In-India Initiative

* The coating line has a production capacity of 750 tons per month

* The INR 30 Crore investment will generate 50 immediate jobs and 25 more in the next 6 months

* This cutting-edge technology has reduced delivery time from 2 months to 1-2 weeks

Euro Panel Products Ltd, which owns EUROBOND - one of the leading Aluminium Composite Panel Brands in India, today integrated India’s most advanced coating line in an INR 30 Crore investment. The development aims to strengthen the Make-in-India initiative, with a significant capacity of 750 tons monthly. This cutting-edge coating line is also the country’s longest line and features a three-coat two-bake continuous processing with an accumulator, helping Euro Panel Products Ltd to mitigate dependency on Chinese materials and manufacture 100% Make-in-India products. 

The INR 30 Crore investment by Euro Panel Products Ltd includes costs associated with machinery and land; It will also generate 50 immediate jobs, with another 25 in the next 6 months, contributing to local employment and economic growth. This development is aimed at enhancing the supportive ecosystem behind ACP manufacturing and will have a positive impact on the balance sheets for the upcoming fiscal years. This strategic initiative will help EUROBOND to decouple from Chinese supply chain dependencies, where coated coils were imported from China. Going forward, the company will source coils from prominent Indian manufacturers to finish the coating in-house using Indian paint, reducing the time from 2 months to 1-2 weeks — a critical step in ensuring faster service and better quality for customers.

Mr. Rajesh Shah, Managing Director of Euro Panel Products Ltd. shared his insights on the development saying, “Our focus is to facilitate a customer-oriented approach through premium quality and customisable products that contribute to the national economy. We plan to drive this strategy by adopting a comprehensive transition away from Chinese materials and strengthening the Make-in-India initiative. The impact of this development is not only limited to raising efficiency and generating new employment opportunities but also significantly reducing delivery time by over 75%, while maintaining significantly lowered RM holding in our inventories. Integrating this next-gen technology will enable our customers to choose from an infinite range of customization aspects, directly contributing to growth and scalability in future.” 

Integrating the coating-line technology will also lead to Euro Panel Products Ltd undertaking in-house R&D efforts that will focus on designs and texture. This will enable the company to offer exclusive and customised designs equipped with specialised coatings and extended warranties on special requirements to its extensive clientele. The firm will focus on sourcing only base coils, to be coated based on requirements and demand. This will enable them to reduce RM inventory, as the requirement of holding coated coils of different colours and grades in stock will be diminished. 

This strategic development is far from limited to enhancing employment and efficiency but reducing man-hours, optimising resource utilisation and flexibility in customisation. Furthermore, it will help the company to open up a brand new business avenue of providing coated coils, passively contributing to increased turnover.
