The Andaman and Nicobar Administration has notified the Andaman and Nicobar Islands Industrial Estate (Allotment & Management) Policy, 2025, aiming to accelerate industrial growth and generate employment in the region. The policy aligns with the Government of India’s initiatives to position the islands as a preferred investment destination.
The new policy will apply to all existing and upcoming industrial estates developed and managed by the Directorate of Industries across the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. It will come into effect from the date of its notification in the Official Gazette and will remain in force until amended or repealed.
With the implementation of this policy, the Rules for Lease of Developed Plots in the Industrial Estate at Garacharma, 1977 and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands (Industrial Estate) Rules, 1976 stand repealed.
The official notification is available on the Industries Department website: https://industries.andaman.gov.in.
