02 / The Proposal
One platform for manufacturers, deployers, researchers, and government.
03 / Planned Outputs
What the alliance will put on the table.
ANNUAL FLAGSHIP
India Robotics Report
Market size, deployment data, import–export figures, and sector-wise adoption — the authoritative annual reference on Indian robotics. No such report exists from an Indian industry body today.
ONGOING
Whitepapers & sector data
Evidence briefs for policymakers, investors, and industry on the questions that decide the ecosystem: localisation, incentives, standards, and skills.
ROADMAP
Standards & certification pathway
A national framework aligned to ISO 10218 and IEC 62061, backed by NABL-accredited testing — so robots made in India are accepted worldwide.
