ELCINA

Genesis, Evolution & Mission

Electronic Industries Association of India was established in 1967 as the first industry association supporting electronics hardware, when India’s Electronics industry was still in its infancy. Since then, ELCINA has established itself as an interactive forum for electronics and IT manufacturers.

ELCINA actively interacts with the government and advises it on policy and business environment issues. It networks with technical institutions and business support organisations in India and abroad to enable business expansion and information dissemination on technical developments. With greater liberalisation, ELCINA’s focus has shifted to professional and value-added services to the Electronics Community.

While ELCINA’s focus was originally on the promotion of manufacturing components - the building blocks of the industry, it has widened its horizons and broadened its activities to include the development of entire Electronics and IT Hardware. ELCINA now focuses on promoting manufacture of:

  • Electronic Components
  • Industrial/professional electronics
  • Defence/strategic electronics
  • Electronic Manufacturing Services
  • Other expanding areas in electronics such as Medical, Automobile, Electronic Design, Embedded Systems and more

Our focus is to support the value chain for Consumer Electronics, Telecom and Computers/ IT correlating their common interest with that of equipment, material and machinery producers for expansion of manufacturing.

ELCINA believes that the Government and the industry need to work together to stimulate manufacturing and catalyse an IT/Electronics boom that can contribute significantly to the development of India. ELCINA persistently works to facilitate changes that would strengthen India’s electronics and IT manufacturing base to make it a leader on the world electronics map.
