Calcom Vision Elevated to Large Investment Category Under Government's PLI Scheme

Calcom Vision Limited, an Indian Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) and Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) provider, has been upgraded to the Large Investment category under India's Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for White Goods, the company announced on Monday.

The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) approved Calcom's increased investment commitment from ₹10 crore to ₹25 crore, which the company has already fully deployed ahead of the scheme's five-year timeline. This expanded investment allows Calcom to broaden its eligible product portfolio to include LED Drivers, Modules, Engines, Mechanical Housings, Heat Sinks, Diffusers, and Light Management Systems.

Abhishek Malik, Executive Director of Calcom Vision Ltd., called the upgrade "a bold validation of Calcom's role in India's industrial future," noting that the company has front-loaded its entire investment ahead of schedule. The company expects to generate ₹150 crore in incremental sales by FY2026-27, which would unlock approximately ₹15.96 crore in performance-based incentives under the scheme.

The ₹6,238 crore PLI Scheme for White Goods is part of the Indian government's Aatmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India) and Make in India initiatives. As of early 2025, the scheme has attracted ₹10,478 crore in investments from 84 approved companies, with production targets exceeding ₹1.72 lakh crore by FY2028-29.

Founded in 1976, Calcom Vision Limited has partnered with global brands including Panasonic, LG, Samsung, Philips, and Osram. The company pivoted to lighting electronics in 2009 and now operates a 30,000 square meter manufacturing facility in Greater Noida with end-to-end R&D capabilities. In 2023, Calcom entered a joint venture with Korea's Taehwa Enterprise to focus on advanced BLDC fan technologies for the Indian market.

The PLI scheme for White Goods was introduced in 2021 as part of the government's efforts to boost domestic manufacturing and reduce import dependence in the electronics and consumer durables sector. The scheme offers financial incentives based on incremental sales from products manufactured in India, with higher incentives for companies making larger investments.
