Project Monitoring Group

About PMG

The Project Monitoring Group (PMG), Invest India is an institutional mechanism for milestone-based monitoring of projects and expediting issue resolution and regulatory bottlenecks in projects with investments upward ₹ 500 Cr. in India. It was set up as a special cell in the Cabinet Secretariat, Government of India in 2013 and was subsequently brought under the administrative control of the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) in 2015. Currently, PMG is situated at Invest India, Department of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce. This relocation was done in order to create a one-stop facilitation destination for investors at all stages of the investment process, including issue resolution. Prime Minister’s Office appointed PMG as Secretariat to Monitoring Group in August 2021.

The milestone-based monitoring ensures proactive monitoring of projects and that helps in initiating course correction measures in time to prevent delays and cost overruns. This puts the Project Monitoring Group at the forefront of driving transformational change in the infrastructure space. With regards to issues, PMG supports all mid and large sized Public, Private and ‘Public–Private Partnership’ (PPP) Projects with fast-tracking of approvals, sectoral policy issues and removal of bottlenecks for expediting project commissioning.
