Agro-based industries: These industries use plants and animal-based products as their raw materials. Examples, food processing, vegetable oil, cotton textile, dairy products, and leather industries.

Large-scale industries: Largescale industries are the exact opposite of small-scale industries. Here the capital invested is large and advanced technology is in use here. Example, Automobiles and Heavy Machinery.

3. Ownership

Private sector: Private industries are businesses that are owned and operated by an individual or group of individuals.

Public sector: Public industries are owned and managed by the government. Example, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL)

Joint sector industries: These industries are jointly operated by the state and individuals. Example, Maruti Udyog.

Cooperative sector industries: Cooperative industries are operated by the suppliers, producers or workers of raw material. Example, Amul India.
