Productivity is the engine of India's manufacturing growth: CII

India is a country where lots of factories make things like clothes, machines, and other goods.

For many years, India's factories have been growing by building bigger factories and hiring more workers.

But a leader from a big business group called CII says that is not enough anymore.

He says India must learn to make more things using the same workers, machines, and money—that is called productivity.

Imagine cleaning a pile of toys: if you find a better way to finish faster, you are being more productive.

The article says India spends very little money on research and development compared to other countries.

It also says India should help small businesses grow bigger and work together with companies from other countries.

The goal is for India to become a rich, developed country by the year 2047.

To reach that goal, the article says factories need to work smarter, not just work more.
