Tripura Secures ₹5,000 Crore in Investments, Emerges as Northeast Investment Hub

Tripura has solidified its position as a “preferred investment destination” in the Northeast, successfully implementing projects worth ₹5,000 crore across multiple sectors over the past year, a senior official said on January 28.

Industries and Commerce Department Secretary Kirtan Gitte noted that the state had received investment proposals totaling ₹19,600 crore during the Raising Northeast Business Summit and the Tripura Investors’ Conclave in 2025. Of this, projects worth ₹5,000 crore have already been realized on the ground.

Speaking at a press conference, Gitte said the state expects to attract an additional ₹9,000 crore—nearly 40% of the proposed investments—over the next few months, a conversion rate significantly higher than the national average of 20–30%.

The government conducts monthly reviews to track the progress of projects arising from business summits and conclaves. Encouraged by investor interest, Tripura is considering hosting another investment conclave after the state assembly’s budget session.

Gitte also highlighted new policy measures to attract investment, including subsidies for transport and solar energy sectors. He noted that transport subsidies were introduced for the first time, while incentives for solar-based industries aim to boost investment in previously underemphasized areas.

To support industrial expansion, the government plans to acquire additional land at the Bodhjungnagar industrial estate in West Tripura, as existing industrial areas approach full capacity.
