ANIMATION, VISUAL EFFECTS, GAMING, AND COMICS (AVGC) SECTOR
Feb. 22, 2022
Ministry of Information and Broadcasting Secretary Apurva Chandra said the Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, and Comics (AVGC) sector in the country could become the content creation factory of the world.
About:
Chandra said the announcement on an AVGC Task Force in the Budget speech by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman was a momentous event that recognised the sector’s importance and the role it played in creating employment.
Although gaming startups in India have generated considerable investor interest over the years, the sector has not attracted enough attention from the government.
Karnataka, one of the few states to have announced an Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, and Comics (AVGC) policy, has been the notable exception.
In January 2022, it launched its first centre of excellence for gaming, albeit nearly a decade after the policy announcement.
