The package would follow Wednesdays earlier announcement of production-linked incentives worth about $27 billion over five years for manufacturers in 10 sectors.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and other top officials will finalise the plan on Thursday, said the sources, who asked not to be named.

Coronavirus cases are still surging in major Indian cities and the country has been adding over 40,000 cases a day.
