The Union Cabinet has approved the Container Manufacturing Promotion Scheme (CMPS) with a financial outlay of ₹10,000 crore to establish a robust domestic manufacturing ecosystem and reduce heavy reliance on foreign suppliers. Scheduled to run from FY2026-27 through 2039-40, the comprehensive policy framework provides ₹8,891 crore in production-linked incentives tied to progressive domestic raw material requirements scaling from 70 to 90 percent. Additional financial allocations include ₹859 crore for interest subventions on term loans for greenfield and brownfield plants, alongside ₹150 crore dedicated to common testing and dynamic impact certification infrastructure. Government projections indicate that domestic container traffic will surge from 24 million TEUs in 2024 to 175 million TEUs by 2047, creating massive commercial demand driven by fleet replacement cycles and upcoming deep-water ports. Industrial clusters in Gujarat, Bhavnagar, and Kutch are poised to revive manufacturing blueprints, leveraging local steel availability and port proximity to generate thousands of direct and indirect jobs.
