Rs 4.48 Trillion Investment Interest for Northeast at Summit

25 Jul 2025 CW Team

The Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region (MDoNER) organised the Rising Northeast Investors Summit 2025 to boost trade and investment in the region. Combined with its pre-event roadshows, the Summit attracted investment interest totalling Rs 4.48 trillion through Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs), letters of intent, and qualified leads from private firms, public-sector undertakings, and major industrial houses. State governments are currently engaging with all investors to implement these proposals.

Energy and agri-food processing, along with allied sectors, drew the majority of investment interest during the event.

To further industrial growth in the region, the Government of India is implementing the Uttar Poorva Transformative Industrialisation (UNNATI) Scheme. This includes three core incentives: Capital Investment Incentive, Central Capital Interest Subvention Incentive, and a Manufacturing & Services Linked Incentive. In addition, states are enhancing investor facilitation through single-window clearances, investment promotion agencies, land banks, and sector-specific incentives.

MDoNER is working closely with state authorities and stakeholders to ground investment proposals effectively.

State governments are also promoting the use of low-carbon technologies and sustainable practices to ensure economic progress while preserving the North East's ecologically sensitive environment. Priority is given to green industries with minimal environmental impact.

This information was shared by Dr Sukanta Majumdar, Minister of State for MDoNER, in a written response in the Lok Sabha.
