undefined

The state government has announced the Gujarat Electronics Components Manufacturing Scheme (GECMS-2025). A key feature of this policy is that units approved and supported by the Central Government’s Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) will also receive 100% matching incentives from the state of Gujarat.

This means that projects set up in Gujarat which have received MeitY approval will benefit from dual incentives—from both the Central and State governments. The policy is aligned with the Central Government’s ECMS policy and ensures full top-up assistance in a simplified and time-bound manner.

Notably, once a project is approved under ECMS by MeitY, it will automatically qualify for matching grants from the state government. After the Central Government disburses its share of the incentives, the state government will release its share within 30 days.

Additionally, eligible institutions based in Gujarat will be entitled to matching support of up to ₹12.5 crore for setting up Centers of Excellence, Finishing Schools, or Applied Research Labs.Under GECMS, a turnover-linked incentive will also be provided for a period of six years.

Objectives 

➢ To establish Gujarat as a prominent player in global electronics supply chains by promoting the manufacturing of electronic components.
➢ By promoting local component and sub-assembly production, reduce import dependency and boost exports, thereby driving product value growth in global electronics value chains (GVCs).

Eligibility 

➢ As per Government of India guidelines, applications to avail benefits under this policy must be submitted by 31st July 2025.
➢ All MeitY-approved projects operating in Gujarat will automatically be eligible for benefits under this policy.
➢ Projects under development or proposed in Gujarat will also be eligible for incentives under this policy

Incentives
