Electricity Duty Exemption (UP Textile)

New textile and garmenting units in Uttar Pradesh can claim exemption from electricity duty for 10 years on electricity produced from Captive Power Plants for self-consumption.

The Electricity Duty Exemption for Captive Power Plants is an incentive under the UP Textile and Garmenting Policy 2022, designed to promote industrial growth and reduce operational costs for new manufacturing units in Uttar Pradesh. This program aims to support the textile and garmenting sector by providing significant financial relief on electricity consumption. By exempting eligible units from electricity duty for a substantial period, the policy encourages investment in captive power generation, which leads to greater energy self-reliance and environmental sustainability. This initiative is crucial for enhancing the competitiveness of new businesses in the state, fostering a robust and attractive investment climate for textile and garmenting manufacturers. The policy is a strategic move by the Government of Uttar Pradesh to boost the state's industrial output and job creation in this key sector.
