One Stop Centres, 2024: Strengthening Support for Overseas NRI Women

The One Stop Centres (OSCs) for overseas NRI women were approved only in November 2024 and started being established from 2025. These centres represent an extension of India’s domestic One Stop Centre scheme (also known as Sakhi) to support Indian women facing distress abroad. The domestic OSC scheme was launched on 1 April 2015 by the Ministry of Women and Child Development (MWCD) under the Nirbhaya Fund to provide integrated, immediate support under one roof to women affected by violence in private or public spaces (Ministry of Women and Child Development, 2015; Press Information Bureau, 2024).

Insolvency Resolution and Corporate Restructuring in India: A Comparative Analysis of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) and Pre-Packaged Insolvency Resolution Process (PPIRP)

As the institutional economics framework of Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson posits, a country fails to grow as long as it is burdened with extractive institutions that support stagnation rather than entrepreneurship. For years, India's corporate insolvency environment has been representative of the same kind of stasis. Thus, instead of being able to exit a state of distress through expeditious bankruptcy procedures, many borrowers became trapped within an overly complex web of regulatory delays while the enterprise lost value at every turn due to the fragmentation of various recovery courts.

Policy Update: Boosting Manufacturing GDP: Analyzing the Impact of PLI Schemes in 2026 and Beyond

The Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme stands as the foundational cornerstone of the Government of India’s campaign to accelerate Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India). Launched in 2020 as a core pillar of the initial economic response strategy, the framework was conceptualized and shaped by NITI Aayog in close coordination with the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) before individual sectors were handed over to their respective line ministries for implementation. Deployed with an initial comprehensive outlay of ₹1.91 lakh crore (over $26 billion), the overarching policy objective is to structurally scale up India’s industrial architecture, enhance export competitiveness, and integrate domestic manufacturers into global value chains (GVCs).
