The Gujarat government has introduced a unified online portal for accessing GCC scheme incentives and set a two‑year period for eligible investments.
The Gujarat Council of Competitive (GCC) scheme has been streamlined with a new digital platform that consolidates all incentive applications into a single portal. Investors can now submit proposals, track approvals and receive benefits through this centralized system, reducing administrative delays.
Under the revised guidelines, projects that qualify for GCC incentives must be initiated within a two‑year window from the date of approval. This timeframe aims to accelerate capital deployment and ensure timely realization of economic benefits.
State officials say the move is designed to make Gujarat more attractive to domestic and foreign investors by simplifying procedures and providing clearer timelines. The portal is expected to go live next month, with training sessions planned for potential beneficiaries.
Industry bodies have welcomed the initiative, noting that a single‑window approach can improve transparency and reduce compliance costs. The government has also indicated that the scheme will be periodically reviewed to align with evolving investment trends.
