This review study explores the dynamics of investment in India's photonics and electronics industries, providing a thorough analysis based on secondary data sources. The study examines the evolving landscape of these high-tech industries, highlighting the significant growth and challenges faced in the context of India’s burgeoning economy. Photonics and electronics, being pivotal in the advancement of communication, healthcare, and defence sectors, have seen varied levels of investment influenced by governmental policies, global market trends, and technological innovations. Through an extensive review of existing literature, industry reports, and financial data, this paper outlines the key drivers of investment, including government incentives, foreign direct investment (FDI), and the growing demand for advanced technologies. The analysis also explores the impact of these investments on the industry’s development, identifying trends such as the shift toward indigenization and the increasing role of startups in driving innovation. Furthermore, the review identifies the barriers to investment, such as regulatory challenges, infrastructure deficits, and the need for skilled labor, which could potentially hinder the sector’s growth. By synthesizing insights from various sources, the paper provides a nuanced understanding of the investment patterns and their implications for the future trajectory of photonics and electronics in India. The findings aim to inform policymakers, investors, and industry stakeholders about the critical factors shaping investment decisions and the strategic opportunities that lie ahead in this rapidly evolving field.
