The New Industrial Policy (NIP) 2021 that came into effect in Jammu and Kashmir on April 1, 2022, has started showing its impact on the ground as the Union Territory is fast turning into an investment hub, according to sources.

For the first time since 1947 investments worth about Rs 2200 crore have been made in J-K in one year. The new business units that have become functional in the Financial Year 2022-23 have created employment opportunities for more than 10,000 youth.

According to the figures dished out by the officials under the New Industrial Policy, a total of 5327 investment proposals have been received so far with an anticipated investment of about Rs 66,000 crore to be made in Jammu and Kashmir in the coming years.

In the Financial Year 2023-24 the work commenced on the industrial units that would fetch an investment of over Rs 5500 crore. These enterprises are all set to provide jobs to thousands of youth in the near future.

From 2022 onwards the J-K Industries Department has allotted land to 1854 units of which 854 have paid the premium. In addition, 560 units have signed lease deeds and have taken over the possession of the land allotted for starting work on their units as mandated under NIP.

Pertinently, the New Industrial Policy has a spending outlay of Rs 28,400 crore (Rs 284 billion), the largest incentive to date, on the industrial development of Jammu and Kashmir for the next 15 years. It is expected to generate an investment of Rs 20,000 crore (Rs 200 billion) and employment of 4.5 lakh over the plan period.

This is the first block-level development project that intends to undertake the process of industrialisation at the very grassroots level using the local resources, skills, and talent available within the Union Territory.

The policy was envisaged with a mission to usher in a new era of socio-economic development in the region, catering to the aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

The policy since its inception has been prioritizing the aspirations of the entrepreneurs and concerted efforts are being put in to make J-K the most investor-friendly UT.

The new policy is different from the industrial policies that were in vogue till this policy was implemented.

To facilitate the investors the government has taken many steps like providing 167 services of 18 departments on a single window portal. A statement states that new industrial estates have been developed and the existing infrastructure has been improved.

Initiatives like the Business Reform Action Plan, and Ease of Doing Business have led to the compiling of 352 BRAP points. This has reduced 3188 burden compliances.

It may be recalled when the business proposals started pouring into Jammu and Kashmir politicians, who ruled the Himalayan region till 2018 had claimed that all these offers were nothing but a farce confined to papers only. New units becoming functional and employing locals have dispelled their propaganda.

After August 5, 2019–when the Centre announced its decision to scrap J-K’s special status and bifurcate it into two Union Territories–the Himalayan region has become an investment hub.

For the first time in 70 years, J-K has received Foreign Direct Investments as international corporate players like Dubai’s Emaar Group are constructing a mall in Srinagar. Showrooms of national and multinational companies like Trendz, Paras Group and others have already become functional in J-K.

Abrogation of Article 370, a temporary provision in the Constitution, more than three years ago has transformed J-K from a strife-torn region into the most vibrant and happening place in the country.
