From times immemorial, Himachal Pradesh has always been one of the greatest contributors towards building tourism resulting in better economic development and success for the nation.

Himachal Pradesh is a land of opportunities and has scaled new heights of development. The State has a legacy of being an investor-friendly region with an enterprising and approachable Government and is now emerging as a preferred investment destination in Northern India, on account of its enabling policy framework, complementing industrial infrastructure, and high Ease of Doing Business ranking.

On account of the above advantages and facilities, Himachal Pradesh has been sanctioned a Medical Devices Park, the first in north India, the foundation stone of which was laid by the Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Spread over 265 acres in Nalagarh, Solan, the Medical Devices Park is connected to global supply chains through road and rail networks as well as airports and is in close proximity to prestigious institutes of “National Importance” such as IIT-Mandi, NIT-Hamirpur, IIM-Sirmour, IIIT-Una & NIPER – Mohali. Availability of supporting infrastructure such as ICD, CETP, CIPET, MSME Technology Centre, Skill Development Centre, Gas Pipeline, etc also offers an advantage. 

The Government of Himachal Pradesh is offering a bouquet of liberal incentives for investors for setting up enterprises in the Medical Devices Park. Some of the key incentives and concessions are as follows:
