The PLI schemes promote a “race to the bottom” approach, where companies compete for the lowest cost instead of focusing on innovation and quality.

There is a lack of transparency in the allocation of funds and selection of beneficiaries.

The PLI schemes are susceptible to corruption and favoritism, as there is no independent oversight mechanism.

The PLI schemes may create a dependency on foreign investment, which can be risky in the long term.

The PLI schemes may lead to environmental degradation, as companies may not prioritize sustainable practices.

The government has not provided adequate resources for the proper implementation of the PLI schemes.
