The website for this campaign is professionally built that creates Indian Business branding like never before. Lion seems to be the mascot for MakeInIndia campaign, and you can boldly see the message – Make In India – on every frame of the website. The logo has been inspired by the Ashoka Chakra and lion.
The website essentially covers 25 different sectors with each section talking about details of that sector that includes,
