Introduction: MP IT ITeS Investment Policy 2023
Madhya Pradesh has positioned itself as a high-return destination for IT-ITeS investments through the MP IT ITeS Investment Policy 2023. The policy is designed to reduce capital cost, improve cash flow, and reward employment creation for IT and IT-enabled services companies.
Unlike generic IT policies, this framework offers direct financial incentives, structured reimbursements, and long-term operational support. However, maximum benefit is achieved only when incentives are professionally structured and claimed through expert subsidy consultants.
This guide explains the incentives available under the policy, with a financial assessment, while showing how Finraja Consultancy Private Limited enables companies to unlock the full value legally and efficiently.
