Boosting Start-Ups:  As mentioned by the Finance Minister, India is gradually emerging as a start-up hub with experimentation happening in cutting edge technologies led by the entrepreneurs’ innovative thought processes. Under this consideration, the government has allocated Rs. 1000 crore to enable start-up incubation in the technology space and also created a mechanism “Self Employment and Talent Utilisation” to support all aspects of start-ups and other self-employment capabilities particularly in the technology driven areas.

Make in India for Defence Manufacturing: Marginal increase in Defence expenditure of 2,22,370 crore last year to 2,46,727 crore in 2015-16 and focus of ‘Make in India’ to accelerate defence manufacturing in the country.
