North Eastern India is a part of the eastern Himalayan Mountain Range. Until 2003 the
expression Northeast India was used to refer to the seven States that lie on India’s
eastern extremity bordering China’s Tibet region, Burma, Bangladesh and Bhutan. The
seven States are Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland
and Tripura. The composition, however, changed in 2003, and now includes an eighth
State Sikkim, once an independent Himalayan kingdom, and part of India since 1973.
Unlike the other States Sikkim is not contiguous with the rest of Northeast India:
Bhutan and the northern areas of West Bengal separate it from the other seven States.
The eight States of the North East together have a population of 39 million as per the
2001 census accounting for 3.8 percent of the population of the country. The Region
shares an extensive international border, with China’s Tibet region and Bhutan in the
north, Myanmar in the east and Bangladesh in the south and west.
The North Eastern Region is rich in development potential. Unlike the rest of the
country, the Region is not overpopulated, but has human capital and locally available
resources that can be harnessed to realize the growth potential of the Region. The
Region is renowned for its rich bio-diversity, hydro potential, oil & gas, coal, limestone
and forest wealth.
The Government of India has undertaken a number of initiatives aimed at integrating
the regional economy of the North East with the rest of the country. Among other
things, establishment of the Ministry of Development of the North East Region
(DONER) and a special development package with a mandate to implement various
developmental projects, have been significant initiatives.
WHY INVEST IN NORTH EAST INDIA ?

North East Industrial and Investment Promotion Policy (NEIIPP), 2007
The Government has approved a package of fiscal incentives and other concessions for
the North East Region namely the ‘North East Industrial and Investment
Promotion Policy (NEIIPP), 2007’, effective from 1.4.2007, which, interalia,
envisages the following:
(i) Coverage:
The North East Industrial Policy (NEIP), 1997 announced on 24.12.1997 covered the
States of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland and
Tripura. Under NEIIPP, 2007, Sikkim will also be included. Consequently, the ‘New
Industrial Policy and other concessions for the State of Sikkim’ announced vide O.M.
No.14(2)/2002-SPS dated 23.12.2002 and the Schemes thereunder i.e. Central Capital
Investment Subsidy Scheme, 2002, Central Interest Subsidy Scheme, 2002 and

period of ten years from the date of commencement of commercial production.
(iii) Neutrality of location:
Incentives will be available to all industrial units, new as well as existing units on their
substantial expansion, located anywhere in the North Eastern Region. Consequently,
the distinction between ‘thrust’ and ‘non-thrust’ industries made in NEIP, 1997 will be
discontinued from 1.4.2007.
(iv) Substantial Expansion:
Incentives on substantial expansion will be given to units effecting ‘an increase by not
less than 25% in the value of fixed capital investment in plant and machinery for the
purpose of expansion of capacity/modernization and diversification’, as against an
increase by 33½ % which was prescribed in NEIP, 1997.
(v) Excise Duty Exemption:
100% Excise Duty exemption will be continued, on finished products made in the North
Eastern Region, as was available under NEIP, 1997. However, in cases, where the
CENVAT paid on the raw materials and intermediate products going into the production
of finished products (other than the products which are otherwise exempt or subject to
nil rate of duty) is higher than the excise duties payable on the finished products, ways
and means to refund such overflow of CENVAT credit will be separately notified by the
Ministry of Finance.
(vi) Income Tax Exemption:
100% Income Tax exemption will continue under NEIIPP, 2007 as was available under
NEIP, 1997.
(vii) Capital Investment Subsidy:
Capital Investment Subsidy will be enhanced from 15% of the investment in plant and
machinery to 30% and the limit for automatic approval of subsidy at this rate will be
Rs.15 million per unit, as against Rs.3 million as was available under NEIP, 1997. Such

Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion with Secretaries of Department of
Development of North Eastern Region (DONER), Expenditure, Representative of
Planning Commission and Secretary of the concerned Ministries of the Government of
India dealing with the subject matter of that industry as its members as also the
concerned Chief Secretary/Secretary (Industry) of the North Eastern State where the
claiming unit is to be located.
Proposals which are eligible for a subsidy higher than Rs.300 million, will be placed by
Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion before the Union Cabinet for its
consideration and approval.
(viii) Interest Subsidy:
Interest Subsidy will be made available @ 3% on working capital loan under NEIIPP,

A number of tax concessions under the existing provisions of Section 10A
and10AA of the Income Tax Act are already available to the IT sector.
However, one of the important impediments to the development of
Software Technology Parks or IT related SEZs in the North Eastern Region
is the non-availability of trained human resources in the North Eastern

under NEIIPP, 2007 will not be admissible to goods in respect of which only peripheral
activities like preservation during storage, cleaning operations, packing, repacking,
labelling or re-labelling, sorting, alteration of retail sale price etc. take place.

act as the nodal agency for disbursal of subsidies under NEIIPP, 2007.
2. The ‘New Industrial Policy and other concession in the North Eastern Region’
announced vide O.M. No.EA/1/2/96-IPD, dated 24.12.1997 (NEIP, 1997) will cease to

ARUNACHAL PRADESH
INTRODUCTION
Arunachal Pradesh attained its Statehood on 20th February 1987. It is situated in the
North-Eastern part of India with a 83743 sq. km area and has a long international
border with Bhutan to the west (160 km), China to the north and north-east (1,080
km) and Myanmar to the east (440 km). Arunachal Pradesh is the largest State area-
wise in the North East Region, even larger than Assam, which is the most populous.
Industry in Arunachal Pradesh
The village and small-scale industries and traditional unorganised industries constitute
an important segment of the State’s economy. This sector plays a vital role in
fulfillment of the socio-economic objectives and offers opportunities for self
employment and exploitation of available resources.
The objective of the Department of Industries in the State is to promote industrial
activities in the State and thereby to provide employment opportunities to the rural
and urban populations and to improve the economic condition of the people. At
present, there are 05 District Industries Centres and 08 Sub- District Industries
Centres in the State.
The District Industries Centres (DICs) and Sub-District Industries Centres (Sub-DICs)
play a prominent role for the industrial development of SSI, tiny and village industries.
This is an institution at the district level, which extends all possible help and guidance
to prospective entrepreneurs for taking up various industrial ventures in the district.
Besides, these Centres offer all facilities to artisans, entrepreneurs and support them.
These Institutions are providing services like identification of suitable schemes,
preparation of project reports, arrangements for providing required plant and
machineries and raw-material for entrepreneurs and marketing opportunities, besides
assisting the entrepreneurs to avail of a package of incentives provided by both the
Central and State Governments. In addition to this, the DICs and Sub-DICs are acting
as a coordinating agency and also maintaining close liaison with the development
departments and Financial Institutions in providing assistance to prospective
entrepreneurs.
There are two Industrial Training Institutes and one Rural Industries Development
Centre functioning in the State. Besides, these Institutes are also helping the local
youth for self-employment.

forest area under the Forest Dept. of the State. During the
mining operations, there is likely to be a large scale
destruction of green forest and hills which could have an
adverse environmental impact on the area. Prevention of
such destruction necessitates following the strict measures
laid out by the Forest Ministry. The guidelines specify filling
up the affected area with top soil and afforestation/

Other General The total deposits of granite in the State is about one

3737
Information billion cubic meter. The granite available is of a high
quality and occurs in black, dark green and pink variants.
The present worldwide demand for polished granite is of
the order of 160-170 million cubic meter and the present
supply barely meets the demand. The major importers of
granite are Japan, Italy, Germany and the UK
The worldwide demand-supply gap, easy availability of raw
material and the Government's liberalised policy on exports
has prompted the AIDC to set up the granite mining and
processing complex in the State. The Assam Govt. would
prefer Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for the project right
from the onset.

• HAL will produce DO-228 aircraft especially for North East which would easily
take off and land from all airports in the North East. The deployment of 19-
seater DO-228 would ensure higher occupancy (load factor) and operational
economy even on low traffic density routes
• Government has also issued an initial NOC to Sky King Aviation to operate
scheduled air services exclusively within the important destinations in the North
East States. Similar proposal from Surya Airlines is also under consideration.

The completion and commissioning of these projects will enhance the generation
capacity to a large extent and transform the power-starved State of Assam to a power
surplus State. The investment requirement for these projects is estimated to be over
Rs.105,000 million.
TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION:
The power sector in Assam suffers from severe T&D problems with a high 39.8 % loss
in the 2005-06. The excessive loss in transmission and distribution is primarily due to:
Ageing of network
Low Line capacity
Inadequate transformation capacity
Inadequate energy accounting facility
Lack of fund for O&M
Manpower : Lack of skilled manpower for maintenance work
Poor HT/LT ratio
The T&D projects have so far been funded under budgetary allocation through NLCPR
and NEC funds and allocation from State plans APDRP and ADB loan. The following new
lines have been added / upgraded for efficient evacuation of power under the above
mentioned schemes:
An extensive program for renovation, augmentation and extension of the State’s
transmission and distribution network is under execution through Assam Electricity Grid
Corporation. The long over due technical reforms in T&D have been brought in with
significant investment for capacity addition & modernization of the existing
transmission and distribution system. The goal is to enhance carrying capacity of the
system from the present level of 550 MW to 1300 MW by 2008.
