The term 'Domestic Content Requirement' is sometimes seen in the news with reference to

1. A

   Developing solar power production in our country

   (a) Developing solar power production in our country. Domestic Content Requirement in the news of that period was the JNNSM/Make-in-India solar rule that a share of cells and modules be made in India, later litigated at the WTO. This is the official key.

2. B

   Granting licenses to foreign T.V. channels in our country

   (b) Licences to foreign TV channels. Not the DCR controversy. Not the key.

3. C

   Exporting our food products to other countries

   (c) Exporting food products. Export rules are not this DCR story. Not the key.

4. D

   Permitting foreign educational institutions to set up their campuses in our country

   (d) Foreign educational campuses. A different FDI/education debate. Not the key.

Summary. Official key is (a) developing solar power production in our country. India required domestic content in some National Solar Mission schemes so that cells and modules would be manufactured locally. The United States challenged those DCR measures in the WTO and won. TV licences, food exports and foreign universities were not that dispute. DCR is a local-content industrial-policy tool.
