Government Policies Boosting Food & Industrial Oil Manufacturing in India

The Indian government is actively supporting manufacturing sectors, including edible oil and lubricant industries. Initiatives like Make in India and Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes aim to boost domestic production.

The Ministry of Food Processing Industries supports edible oil manufacturers through subsidies, infrastructure development, and modernization schemes.

For industrial oils, policies encourage local manufacturing, reducing dependency on imports. This has created new opportunities for lubricant producers.

Automation and modernization are key focus areas. Companies investing in advanced packaging machinery can improve productivity and qualify for certain incentives.

In 2026, digitalization and smart manufacturing are being promoted under Industry 4.0 initiatives. This includes IoT-enabled machines, real-time monitoring, and AI-driven quality control.

These policies help businesses scale faster, improve quality, and compete globally.

For packaging companies like GTECH, this is an opportunity to provide high-performance machinery that aligns with government goals.
