Gujarat Integrated Logistics and Logistics Park Policy 2021
This scheme's operative period has ended.
The notified five-year window closed on 1 August 2026. Confirm with us whether a successor notification is in force before planning around it.
Gujarat handles roughly 40% of India's cargo across a 1,600 km coastline with one major and 48 non-major ports, and ranked first in the LEADS logistics index in both 2018 and 2019. This policy is the state's move to hold that lead — and it is markedly broader than the 2020 logistic park scheme it sits alongside, covering ten distinct facility types and eight separate incentives rather than a single capital subsidy.
