🇮🇳 India does not have a talent problem.
India has an R&D spending problem.
📊 R&D as % of revenue:
🇺🇸 SpaceX: 46%
🇺🇸 Meta: 28.5%
🇺🇸 Nvidia: 8.6%
🇮🇳 HAL: 9.3%
🇮🇳 Dr Reddy's: 7.5%
🇮🇳 Tata Motors: 6.7%
🇮🇳 Sun Pharma: 6.2%
🇮🇳 TCS, Infosys, HCL: ~1%
🇮🇳 Reliance: 0.4%
🇮🇳 Adani Power: ₹1.1 crore in total
🔍 The gap in one line:
➤ Entire BSE 100 R&D (FY24): ₹63,072 crore
➤ Alphabet alone (2025): $61.1 billion
One company outspends India's top 100 by roughly 8x.
⚠️ Why this matters:
➤ Indian firms invest 0.3% of GDP in in-house R&D
➤ World average: 1.5%
➤ We build capacity, others build IP
➤ We export engineers, then import their products
🛠️ What India needs:
➤ Boardrooms treating R&D as an investment, not a cost
➤ R&D-to-sales disclosure made standard for listed companies
➤ Sector benchmarks for autos, pharma, electronics and IT
➤ Industry funding university research, not just hiring from it
➤ Investors rewarding patents and products, not only dividends
✅ Proof it works:
HAL, Dr Reddy's, Sun Pharma and Tata Motors already spend 6% to 9%.
It can be done from India. It is just not being done widely.
Record profits. Record capex.
Now we need record research.
Viksit Bharat will not be built on licensed technology.
Should listed companies be required to disclose R&D as % of sales? 👇
#WATCH | A passenger who was onboard the flight on which Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) Founder Abhijeet Dipke was travelling to Delhi says, "We were travelling from Mumbai. We had to wait even after the flight landed. After the flight landed, we could hear sloganeering of 'Inquilab Zindabad' from the front of the aircraft. I don't know who Dipke is. They must be 'Cockroach' who must be behaving like this; I don't know much...They were on a protest for 36 days earlier. But will they create inconvenience everywhere? Public is inconvenienced due to a few people like this. If the names of people have been wrongfully deleted, Supreme Court will look into it. They (protesters) are not going to look into it. Shut down Courts if public will do everything. There is a system which we follow, shut down that system. If there is a problem, we will protest - will that help?"
