Gujarat Leads the Way: Introducing India's First State SpaceTech Policy

Gujarat unveils India's first dedicated SpaceTech Policy to boost the space tech industry with incentives and partnerships. Aligning with ISRO and IN-SPACe, the state aims to establish a Centre for Excellence and a space manufacturing park, enhancing opportunities for enterprises and startups.

The Gujarat government has taken a pioneering step by launching 'SpaceTech Policy 2025-2030', a move that makes it the first state in India to implement a dedicated policy for the burgeoning space sector.

The policy aims to provide comprehensive support, both fiscal and non-fiscal, across various activities within the space industry. This includes the manufacturing of satellite payloads, communication systems, and space-based application designs.

In a bid to ensure effective implementation, Gujarat will collaborate with major space entities like ISRO and IN-SPACe, and work towards establishing a Centre for Excellence in Space Technologies. Additional support will also be offered under other state policies to further encourage enterprise growth in the sector.
