About this subsidy
The 'Concession of Land use conversion charges' is a significant incentive offered under the New UP Warehousing & Logistics Policy 2022 by the Government of Uttar Pradesh. This program aims to boost investment and development in the warehousing and logistics sector within the state by reducing the financial burden associated with land use conversion for critical infrastructure projects. Specifically targeting dry port projects, including Inland Container Depots (ICD), Container Freight Stations (CFS), and Air Freight Stations (AFS), this concession directly supports the establishment and expansion of crucial logistics hubs. By waiving a substantial portion of these charges, the policy seeks to make Uttar Pradesh a more attractive destination for logistics and industrial enterprises, thereby enhancing connectivity, trade efficiency, and job creation across the region. This initiative reflects the state's commitment to creating a business-friendly environment and strengthening its position as a major logistics hub in India.
