A few years ago, if you bought a toy, almost every piece used to be “Made in China.” Today, India has reduced its toy imports from China from $235 million in 2020 to $41 million in 2023. At the same time, India has increased its toy exports from $98 million in 2014 to $335 million in 2022.

Here's what India did for boosting Indian Toy Industry & wiping out China's toys:

•Customs duty on toys increased from 20% → 60% in 2020, and later 70% in 2023.

•Restrictions/testing on imported toys
The BIS enforced strict safety quality standards starting in January 2021.

•Significant support through the Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana.
which has now been extended to 20 years. This has provided access to collateral-free loans for small businesses

•18 toy clusters across the country have been supported by the Ministry of MSME.
