Viksit Gujarat Industrial Policy 2026 · 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2031
Choose your incentive basket.
The 2026 policy replaces fixed schemes with a basket: capital subsidy, interest subsidy and power tariff support, combined in any proportion up to a ceiling set by your unit size and the taluka you build in. Bhavnagar taluka is Category B. The calculator below starts there and shows Category A beside it, so no one is surprised later.
Calculator
01Your numbers, the published percentages.
Indicative basket
This is arithmetic on the published percentages, for planning conversations only. Interest subsidy assumes the loan is fully drawn for the stated years; power support assumes a flat annual consumption; EPF uses the ₹1,800 per employee per month cap and ignores the higher caps for women and specially-abled employees. Eligible investment, category, sector status and the final quantum are determined by the Government of Gujarat under the policy’s own provisions. Confirm with a consultant before you commit.
The honest number
Category B. Up to 35%, not 45%.
The Government Resolution of 8 September 2026 classifies 130 talukas as Category A and 138 as Category B. Bhavnagar taluka, where the park sits, is Category B. Ghogha, Vallabhipur, Umrala, Talaja, Palitana, Gariadhar and Jesar in the same district are Category A. Some sellers will quote you the Category A headline; we would rather you knew the difference before the visit.
What Category B does not change: the 7% interest subsidy, the 100% EPF reimbursement, the electricity-duty exemption, the thrust-sector list, and the five-year window. What it does change is the capital-subsidy rate and the power support per unit, and the calculator above already accounts for both.
| Component | Category A | Category B |
|---|---|---|
| MSME capital subsidy | 35% of eFCI | 25% of eFCI |
| Interest subsidy | 7% p.a. · 5 yrs · cap 10% | same |
| Power tariff support | ₹2 per unit · 5 yrs | ₹1 per unit · 5 yrs |
| MSME overall ceiling | 45% of eFCI | 35% of eFCI |
| Large, thrust sector ceiling | 35% | 25% |
| EPF reimbursement | 100% | 100% |
| Electricity duty | exempt | exempt |
Every band
03Micro to ultra-mega, A and B side by side.
Interest subsidy is 7% a year for five years, capped at 10% of eligible investment, in every band. Bold figures are the ones that apply at the park.

Reliefs that stack.
Twenty-one thrust sectors
Build inside a category the policy is written to favour.
Thrust-sector status is what separates a 25% ceiling from a 15% one for a large unit. Of the twenty-one, the ones with a natural home on this coast are highlighted: port-led industries, ship recycling and steel, engineering and fabrication, containers, logistics, solar and battery equipment, critical minerals and agro processing.
