Abstract: Industry 4.0 (I4.0) revolution is the cyber-physical transformation and a growing trend towards automation in the manufacturing industry. This study empirically examines the critical enablers for I4.0 adoption in Indian manufacturing industries. Initially, 25 enablers are extracted from literature and screening of significant enablers is done through expert's view. The screened enablers are prioritised using DEMATEL approach. The results indicate that internet of thing (IoT) enabler got the 1st rank as it affects most of enablers significantly, followed by artificial intelligence got 2nd rank and top management support obtained 3rd rank as a driver of I4.0 adoption. The obtained outcomes provide an understanding of significant enablers which promote the I4.0 implementation in the Indian manufacturing setting. This study also facilitates industrial managers to focus on enablers as per proposed ranking during making implementation strategies for I4.0 technology.
