Gujarat Unveils Electronics Components Manufacturing Policy 2025, Eyes Rs 35,000 Cr Investment

Gandhinagar, Jun 23 (KNN) The Gujarat government on Sunday announced a new Electronics Components Manufacturing Policy, 2025, targeting Rs 35,000 crore in fresh investments to strengthen the State’s position in the national semiconductor and electronics value chain.

The policy is designed to attract upstream industries critical to the semiconductor ecosystem, where four major projects are currently in various stages of development. 

It will focus on encouraging manufacturers of high-value components such as multi-layer and high-density interconnect (HDI) printed circuit boards (PCBs), lithium-ion cells, surface-mount device (SMD) passive components, camera and display modules, electronic parts, and related machinery.

According to an official release, the policy offers a significant incentive structure. Projects approved by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) will receive a 100 percent top-up on central assistance. 

These MeitY-approved units will be eligible for dual benefits—central incentives along with guaranteed state support. 

Gujarat has committed to disbursing its share of incentives within 30 days of the central government’s release, ensuring timely financial assistance.

The policy also introduces a ‘turnover-linked incentive’ for a period of six years and will be implemented by the Gujarat State Electronics Mission (GSEM). 

Notably, the scope of the policy covers not only new proposals but also existing and ongoing projects in the State that have received central government support under MeitY. 

However, units already availing benefits under the Gujarat Electronics Policy (2022–28) will not be eligible under this scheme.

As per government guidelines, interested entities must submit their applications by July 31 to avail the benefits under the new framework.
