Indian manufacturing will not face line-stoppage risks due to external supply disruptions, it noted.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme can position India as an alternative hub in the rare-earth magnet supply chain when global industries are seeking diversified and reliable sources.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme aims to establish 6,000 metric tons per annum of integrated REPM manufacturing capacity in India.<\/p>\n<p>It consists of sales-linked incentives of Rs 6,450 crore on REPM sales for five years and a capital subsidy of Rs 750 crore for setting up the manufacturing capacity.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"color:black\" href=\"https:\/\/menafn.com\/1110409810\/Indias-Rare-Earth-Scheme-To-Boost-SupplyChain-Resilience-Semiconductor-Push-Industry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><\/p>\n<p>MENAFN28112025000231011071ID1110409810<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(MENAFN&#8211; IANS) New Delhi, Nov 28 (IANS) The India Electronics and Semiconductor Association (IESA) on Friday said the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":158069,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[138,219,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-158068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economy","tag-business","tag-economy","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158068","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=158068"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158068\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/158069"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=158068"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=158068"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=158068"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
