About the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII)
The Confederation of Indian Industry, widely known as CII, is one of India’s leading industry bodies. It represents over 9,000 direct members across private and public sectors.
CII works to strengthen Indian industry through policy engagement, business collaboration, and global partnerships. It is a non-government, not-for-profit, industry-led organization. While it works closely with the government on economic and policy matters, it operates independently.
From time to time, CII also puts forward policy recommendations. Ahead of the Union Budget 2026, for example, CII called for a four-pillar strategy for macro-economic stability built on:
- Debt sustainability
- Fiscal transparency
- Revenue mobilisation
- Expenditure efficiency
These pillars reflect CII’s broader role in shaping economic dialogue and strengthening long-term industrial growth.

The CII CIES startup affiliation program is a structured 24-month initiative designed for growth-stage startups that are ready to scale.

The programme supports startups across sectors such as FinTech, HealthTech, RetailTech, Advanced Manufacturing, and enterprise technology.
