Positioning Haryana as India’s premier growth engine, Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Monday launched the ambitious “Make in Haryana” Industrial Policy, setting a target of attracting Rs 5 lakh crore in fresh investments. The policy was unveiled at an event in Gurugram and marked a significant milestone for the state’s economy, with investment commitments worth Rs 1.10 lakh crore secured through MoUs signed on the very first day.
The new policy framework introduces a radical shift in governance, replacing the legacy block-categorisation system with a simplified, transparent area classification. A standout feature is the AI-enabled “Single Window 2.0” portal, which offers investors automated investment blueprints and GIS-based land identification, reinforcing the state’s guiding principles of “speed and trust.”
“Investing in Haryana means investing in the future,” Chief Minister Saini said while unveiling the policy and nine new sectoral frameworks. “Make in Haryana is not merely an industrial policy; it is the roadmap for our next phase of economic growth, built on competitiveness, innovation and future-ready manufacturing.”
The massive influx of capital was highlighted by a major commitment from Anant Raj Limited, which signed an MoU to invest Rs 20,000 crore in developing large-scale data centre infrastructure across the state. This project alone is expected to generate approximately 6,000 direct and indirect jobs, underscoring the policy’s focus on high-growth digital infrastructure.
Industries Minister Rao Narbir Singh hailed the event as a milestone, stating, “Our objective is to position Haryana not just as a manufacturing destination, but as a leading global centre for innovation, exports, and future-ready industries.” Echoing this sentiment, Commissioner and Secretary of the Industries and Commerce Department, Dr. Amit Agrawal, noted that the state’s new approach prioritizes long-term partnership over simple incentives. “Investors today look for governments that can make quick decisions and act as reliable partners. Haryana has spent months consulting with stakeholders to build exactly that,” he said.
The policy suite covers critical sectors including electric vehicles, electronics, data centres, and advanced manufacturing. By providing up to 30% capital support and robust R&D incentives, the government aims to catalyse expansion for both MSMEs and global conglomerates. As the state prepares to host the upcoming “Happening Haryana” Global Investors Summit, the message to the world is clear: Haryana is ready to lead the charge in realising the vision of a Developed India by 2047.
