State Empowered Committee Recommends ₹49,884 Crore Investment Proposals in Rajasthan, Over 13,000 Jobs to be Created

Jaipur, January 2026: A key meeting of the State Empowered Committee was held at the Secretariat on Thursday under the chairmanship of Chief Secretary Shri V. Srinivas. During the meeting, investment proposals totaling approximately ₹49,883.85 crore were recommended for customized packages under the state’s investment promotion policies. These proposals span sectors such as energy, cement, mining, textiles, petrochemicals, steel, healthcare, hospitality, and automobiles. Their implementation is expected to generate over 13,000 new employment opportunities. The proposals will now be placed before the Investment Board chaired by the Chief Minister.

The Chief Secretary highlighted that Rajasthan’s investor-friendly policies and initiatives have created a positive investment climate in the state. Procedures for establishing businesses and industries have been significantly simplified, placing Rajasthan among the leading states in India for ease of doing business. These efforts, combined with the state’s vast industrial potential, have attracted investors from both domestic and international markets, while also creating new job opportunities in the private sector.

Over the past year, the state government has strengthened its investment ecosystem through more than 20 progressive policies and implementing ease-of-doing-business reforms. Key initiatives include an online MoU facility via a single-window platform, timely approvals through the Rajnivesh portal covering 170+ services across 19 departments, a GIS-enabled industrial land database, and an e-auction portal for land allotment. Rajasthan has also emerged as a top performer in reducing compliance burdens under the Government of India’s national initiative.

The Rajasthan Investment Promotion Scheme (RIPS) has played a pivotal role in building investor confidence, with incentives worth ₹1,500 crore already disbursed in FY 2025-26. These reforms have been instrumental in translating MoUs worth over ₹8 lakh crore into actionable projects, solidifying Rajasthan’s status as one of India’s most investor-friendly states.

Additional Chief Secretary of Industries & Commerce, Shri Shikhar Agrawal, noted that companies including Jindal Renewable Power, Star Cement, Dalmia Bharat Green Vision, JSW Cement, Hindustan Zinc, Chambal Fertilizers & Chemicals, Sangam India Limited, Fortune Foundation, Goyal Fashions, and Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Ltd. have applied for customized packages. The proposals were discussed and recommended in the meeting and will now go before the Chief Minister’s Investment Board.

The meeting was attended by senior officials including Additional Chief Secretaries from Water Resources, Forest & Environment, Public Works, and Energy; Principal Secretaries from Finance, Mines & Petroleum, and Urban Development; Industries & Commerce Commissioner Shri Suresh Kumar Ola; and Additional Commissioner of the Investment Promotion Bureau Shri Jugal Kishore Meena.
