The policy will aim at making Rajasthan a leading hub in India’s aerospace and defence value chain by creating a strong ecosystem for advanced manufacturing, research and industry-friendly incentives, the official added.
He further said the policy will extend support to service sectors like maintenance, repair and overhaul, research & development, cybersecurity, testing, and simulation, creating a balanced environment for both production and innovation.
Additionally, the new policy will provide units with the flexibility to choose one of three incentive options — up to 75 per cent reimbursement of state goods and services tax (SGST), capital subsidies of up to 28 per cent, or turnover-linked or employment-linked benefits for units that promote local hiring.
Alok Gupta, principal secretary, industries & commerce department, said: “Rajasthan is prepared to take a significant leap in the aerospace and defence sector. Through a forward-looking policy framework, robust infrastructure, and a commitment to sustainable growth, we aim to position the state as a preferred destination for both domestic and global investors. This policy reflects our belief in innovation-driven development and inclusive progress.”
Rajasthan aims to attract large global investors, foster collaborations with institutions like the Defence Research and Development Organisation (
DRDO) and Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro), and empower local micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and startups through access to infrastructure and training, he added.
