The state’s industrial policy—offering capital and interest subsidies, electricity duty exemptions, stamp duty concessions, and customised packages for large investments—has been cited to be one of the most modern and investor-centric in the country.

With the above concessions, the state has received investment proposals worth more than Rs 7.90 lakh crore since the new policy came into force, reflecting growing investor trust.

Emphasising logistics advantages, the Chief Minister said Chhattisgarh’s central location strengthens supply chains, with industrial corridors, enhanced highways, expanding airport connectivity, and an improved rail network making the state an ideal destination for manufacturing. The state also has vast solar potential due to its geographic location on the Tropic of Cancer.

In line with India’s 2070 net-zero target, Chhattisgarh is promoting green steel, green energy, and renewable energy sectors, supported by attractive incentives.

Senior state officials including chief secretary Vikas Sheel, principal secretary to the CM Subodh Singh, secretary (tourism) Rohit Yadav, commerce and industry secretary Rajat Kumar were present during the event.
