Jammu & Kashmir secured the 5th rank among all States and UTs, emerging as a Top Achiever with leading scores in four of the five key reform categories. The recognition highlights the UT government’s efforts to build a transparent, efficient, and investor-friendly business environment that fosters industrial growth and investment.
The honour at Udyog Samagam 2025 further strengthens J&K’s position as an attractive destination for investors. The event brought together policymakers, industry leaders, and state representatives to celebrate cooperative federalism and progress in India’s industrial sector.
