Chhattisgarh

Chhattisgarh is a relatively young State which was carved out of Madhya Pradesh and became a separate state on 1 November in the year 2000. With a forward-looking approach, vibrant environment for industry and businesses and robust growths recorded in the past few years, Chhattisgarh has come to find a place among the fastest growing states in the country. To its credit, Chhattisgarh is increasingly been seen and known as a business-friendly state where the Government has built a strong investment-friendly ecosystem, designed hassle-free processes for starting and doing business and set transparent and faster service standards by adopting robust policies and institutions. Its single-window facilitation mechanism ranks among the best in the country, and its revamped taxation system and e-governance in commercial tax are major reforms carried out in recent times. It is a state where electricity is 35% than all-India average and cost advantages for setting up businesses in terms of physical and human resources are significant. In the assessment of the World Bank and the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), Government of India, Chhattisgarh ranks among the top five investor-friendly states in the country. To its credit, Chhattisgarh grew faster than national average during the 11th plan period (2007-12) and its GSDP at current prices is around Rs 210,192 crore in 2014-15. While its services sector contributes 40 percent to its GSDP, agriculture and industry contribute 22 percent and 38 percent respectively. Between 2003-04 and 2013-14, Chhattisgarh’s average industrial growth rate was 9.32 percent, which is again higher than the national average of 7.25 percent. Per capita GSDP in Chhattisgarh has more than doubled from 2004-05 to 2013-14 while per the capita income has jumped from Rs 13,145 in 2002-03 to Rs 64,442 in 2014-15. Rich natural resources and abundant mineral are a big plus for Chhattisgarh. In fact, it is the richest in the country in terms of mineral wealth, with 28 major minerals, including diamond, gold, iron-ore, coal, corundum, bauxite, dolomite, lime, tin, granite, etc., and the only state to have tin ore reserves. Over one-fifth of iron ore in the country is mined in Chhattisgarh and one of the best quality iron ore deposits in the world are found here. The state is also known as the “iron and steel hub” of the country. In every respect, the state offers significant opportunities for infrastructure development through private sector participation. Chhattisgarh also boasts an International airport with a cargo facility. Also coming up is a 21st-century modern city in Naya Raipur, a planned township for 560,000 people.
