The meet, chaired by Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, saw participation from leading CEOs and investors from across the country. The proposed investments span priority sectors and are expected to boost industrial output, generate employment, attract capital inflows and promote balanced regional development in the state.
Addressing the gathering, the Chief Minister assured investors of full policy, administrative and institutional support from the state government. He said Himachal Pradesh was committed to offering a transparent, stable and investor-friendly policy environment.
The CM also held detailed discussions with industry leaders on investment opportunities, facilitation mechanisms and long-term industrial growth. He assured uninterrupted 24-hour power supply to industries at the lowest possible tariffs and urged investors to sign implementation agreements at the earliest.
Industry Minister Harshwardhan Chauhan said the Department of Industries would work with full dedication to translate the Chief Minister’s vision into results through effective policy execution, investor facilitation and continuous monitoring of projects.
According to an Industries Department spokesperson, the MoCs cover key sectors including food processing, pharmaceuticals, defence manufacturing, green mobility, solar power and other renewable energy segments. These sectors were identified for their strong growth potential, export orientation, value addition and contribution to sustainable industrialisation.
Additional Chief Secretary (Industries) RD Nazeem reiterated the government’s commitment to single-window clearance, time-bound approvals and efficient project implementation to ensure timely operationalisation of investments.
Investors were briefed on industrial infrastructure, land availability, incentive frameworks and MSME-friendly policies. Discussions were also held on institutional support and convergence with central government initiatives. The proposed investments are expected to accelerate industrial diversification, integrate local MSMEs with national and global value chains, and create large-scale direct and indirect employment.
