Theme – Building Resilience and Modernizing India@75 & Beyond

The COVID-19 pandemic has severely dented India’s growth story and led to a situation of low demand, low consumption, and therefore, low investment. The Government has already introduced several reforms aimed at providing more liquidity in the hands of businesses and the masses. Indian PSUs can play the critical role of setting the Government’s mission in motion, by boosting investment, providing employment, contributing to the government exchequer through taxes and dividend, supporting MSMEs, contributing to exports and being ambassadors of corporate governance. India now has the opportunity to build a more resilient and future-ready economy on the foundation of futuristic infrastructure, digital transformation, sustainable & responsible growth, a skilled workforce and innovation. As India approaches a milestone of 75 years of Independence, Indian PSUs can play a critical role in reinforcing the economy by focusing on building resilience and on modernizing systems, processes and approaches.

With this context, the theme for the India’s Top PSUs 2021 event was ‘Building Resilience and Modernizing India@75 & Beyond’.
