"If we have to touch the overall GDP growth of eight percent, we need to have manufacturing growth at almost 12-14 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR)," he said.

As per official data released yesterday, India's economic growth dipped in the January-March quarter to 6.1 percent. The growth of manufacturing sector was recorded at 7.9 percent in 2016-17.

Saraswat said India intended to achieve a 25 percent contribution by the manufacturing sector to its GDP by 2022.
In 2015, the manufacturing sector's contribution to the GDP was 15 percent -- almost USD 270 billion in a GDP of USD 1.8 trillion.
