The UNCTAD's Investment Policy Monitor database include official measures affecting FDI adopted by United Nations Member States. These encompass measures explicitly targeting FDI (FDI-specific), as well as general investment measures with a clear impact on foreign investment (FDI-related). The measures are either reported directly to UNCTAD by Member States through annual surveys or identified by UNCTAD researchers through publicly accessible sources (such as government websites and specialized policy databases). The classification of measures as more or less favourable is based solely on their potential impact on investors.
Note: Measures are verified, to the fullest extent possible, by referencing government sources. The compilation of measures is not exhaustive.

Promotes foreign investment in the township projects in Uttar Pradesh.
02 Oct 2022On 2 October 2022, the Housing Department of Uttar Pradesh (UP) announced the new township policy of the Yogi government. Under the new township policy, developers can invest 100% in the township under the FDI policy and will be given 50% rebate in land use change fee and 100% rebate in development fee. In the earlier policy, only 25% in land use change fee was permissible. In addition, 50% exemption in stamp duty will also be given to the developers who buy the land after taking the license. According to the provisions of the policy, it will now be easier for the developers of the township to take the land and they will also be able to take the government land falling in the developed area.
