The Chhattisgarh state cabinet has sanctioned a Rs 500 crore initiative aimed at boosting startups and a new export policy to enhance the state's trade prospects.
During a cabinet meeting in Raipur, the Chhattisgarh government gave the green light to a Rs 500 crore startup mission alongside a fresh export policy. The dual approval is intended to create a more conducive environment for new businesses and to expand the state's presence in global markets.
The startup mission earmarks substantial financial resources to support early‑stage enterprises, with the aim of fostering innovation, creating jobs and attracting private investment. Parallelly, the export policy outlines measures to simplify procedures, improve market access and boost the competitiveness of Chhattisgarh’s products abroad.
State officials said the initiatives are part of a broader strategy to diversify the economy and reduce dependence on traditional sectors. Implementation will be overseen by the Department of Industries and the Export Promotion Board, which will roll out detailed guidelines in the coming weeks.
