Setback for Make in India as JSW Orders Cargo Vessels from China In a move that has sparked debate over India’s manufacturing priorities, JSW Group has placed orders for four cargo vessels from Chinese shipyards. The decision has raised fresh questions about the effectiveness of India’s domestic shipbuilding ecosystem and the broader Make in India push for self-reliance. While overseas orders may offer cost and delivery advantages, experts argue that such decisions slow the growth of Indian shipyards and weaken long-term strategic capabilities.
